Orlando Franklin is best suited for a modern pro-style offensive system that prioritizes a balanced run game with an emphasis on power and zone blocking, complemented by a play-action passing game.
He projects as an immediate starter at right tackle with the ceiling to develop into a long-term anchor at either tackle spot.
His heavier frame and solid but unspectacular agility would make him a poor fit for an up-tempo, pass-heavy spread offense that demands highly athletic, agile offensive linemen.
Franklin's size and strength make him an ideal fit for systems that want to establish the line of scrimmage in both run and pass protection, though he might struggle to adapt to extremely wide zone or quick-pass spread concepts early in his career.
Selected #46 overall in Round 2 of the 2011 NFL Draft by Denver Broncos out of Miami (FL).
