Newsbreakers
September 7, 2008
Wide receivers Maurice Price (knee) and Will Franklin (knee), linebacker Napoleon Harris, guard Brian De La Puente, offensive tackle Barry Richardson, defensive tackle T.J. Jackson, and quarterback Tyler Thigpen join running back Kolby Smith on the inactive list for Week 1.

Our View:Franklin is a promising rookie, but we didn't expect him to play due to his knee ailment. He should challenge Devard Darling for a starting spot as the season continues.
September 6, 2008
Will Franklin (knee) has been downgraded on the injury list according to the Boston Globe. He is now listed as "out" for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Our View:The rookie will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL debut. When he does, he is likely to battle for the third wide receiver spot.
September 4, 2008
Chiefs rookie wide receiver Will Franklin may not be ready to play Week 1 against the Patriots, as he is still recovering from knee surgery, according to the Kansas City Star.

Our View:Franklin had been getting plenty of opportunities to earn some playing time, and had he not had this injury, he may have been a starter. Alas, he'll have to wait until his knee is healthy before that can happen. Fantasy owners should not have him on their squad until he proves he will be able to contribute.
August 22, 2008
Will Franklin is doubtful for Saturday's preseason contest after sustaining a right knee injury Thursday, according to the KC Star.

Our View:Franklin could add a spark to the Chiefs' aerial attack this season, but still needs work on his mechanics and fundamentals, and missing a preseason game (and possibly two) will hinder his chances to make a favorable impact as a rookie.
July 27, 2008
Will Franklin will be expected to play a major role on the Chiefs' offense this season according to the Kansas City Star. He was the was the first receiver off the bench when the Chiefs went to their three-receiver formations.

Our View:Franklin has the speed to stretch the field and that's exactly what the coaches will use him to do. Franklin could be one of the better rookies but he's not worth drafting. The offense will go thru Larry Johnson and the running attack.
