NFL.com’s evaluation of Franklin states that he could make an immediate impact as a number three receiver in the NFL.  The website also said, "Excellent size-speed-athleticism combination. … Possesses great hops and can use them to get the jump ball. … Can tightrope the sideline and concentrate on the catch. … Catches the ball away from body most times. … Can be physical with cornerbacks in run blocking downfield. … Willing to go over the middle and take a hit. … Nice YAC potential because he can change directions and accelerate quickly. … Called a "team player" by his coaches".
