This is good news. The kid has a canon. And I've heard that he has legit speed. Anyone know? Is he a 4.3 in the forty kind of fast? That would make him Matt Jones with a canon. Get some offensive linemen and establish the power run. Make him really efficient throwing the slant and a few quick outs. Sprinkle in a couple of deep routes. And this cat will do the rest with his legs.

If for no other reason than to bring in competition for KJ this is a good move. WPS

I would probably compare his speed to someone like Roethelisberger. He's not going to look to scramble 15 times a game but can move around and maybe be a short yardage hammer. He had an 80 yard run against Texas A&M where he shook off about 3-4 tackles.

....................no................I would be amazed if any player in the history of our team, outside McFadden, was actually that fast. 5 kids ran under 4.4s at last year's combine......5.......do you even watch football?

Franks has 4.7 speed at best. If he had 4.3 speed he would be in the draft already
