• He’s extremely dangerous in the open field, showing the vision and creativity to run through entire defenses.
• Has elite balance tight-roping the sideline and in-and-out of his breaks, showing excellent start-stop ability and burst.
• Franklin fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
• Although Franklin is more of a possession target than a field stretcher, his competitive demeanor and ability to make plays after the catch make him a threat in the middle of the field.

• He’s dangerous in catch-and-run situations, although his run-after-catch ability could be further enhanced.
