The Atlanta Falcons primarily employ a hybrid Cover-3 and Cover-4 scheme, emphasizing versatile defensive backs who can play multiple roles in the secondary.
Initially, Franks can contribute on special teams and as a rotational deep safety, with the ceiling to develop into a starting free safety capable of playing coverage or in the box.
A man-heavy scheme that asks him to consistently cover slot receivers or tight ends in isolated man coverage on every down.
Franks' athleticism and coverage skills are a fit for a versatile secondary that values range and ball-hawking ability in a zone-heavy scheme.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
