PFF Player Comp for Franklin is Christian Watson... just coming here to say I told ya so lol

That is a terrible comp in my opinion. Franklin played against high level competition, and Watson, while playing for a powerhouse, didn't play at a P5 powerhouse, and didn't play against the athletes on defense that Franklin did. |

Troy Franklin is so much better than Watson. By like a lot. Paired with Mahomes, Troy Franklin would be a top 5 receiver in this league by the end of his rookie deal. |
I wanted Watson, too. And early in his rookie year, I got roasted for it. And then he scored like 8 TD's in like 6 weeks and people shut up.
There's an awful lot to like about Franklin. I just want a good, smart, athletic top 64 pick. I'll trust Veach, Andy, and Mahomes to get their guy. |
Also, I just saw some Pearsall highlights...
I've been sleeping on him. Did you see that one handed grab where he gets hammered on the crossing pattern and he still comes down with it? Man. Not at #32 or anything, but man. |

Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint out of Georgia absolutely wreaks of Brett Veach.

After that first drop, his body language was just 'defeated'. He looked like me out there after a boot a grounder. "Please just don't hit the next one to me..." He was terrified. And when that ball came his way there was just never a question he was going to drop it. Nah - maybe someone else can get past that with him but that's a guy who's mental makeup tells me that when we need him to bring in a key 3rd down in January one of these days, he might just puke on his shoes at the mere thought of it. Contrast that with, say, MVS - who's been irrationally confident his entire time here. I'll take the latter. |

Guess that's why I am not in on him. I don't want a vertical #2 decoy with a 1st round pick. I can get that cheap in FA. |
