    Much better fit as a 3-4 nose, should be a quality backup for SD

    Franklin is an upgrade over Castillo at this point.

    Dude they play different positions.

    In any event Franklin is a nice pickup. They now have more flexibility on the DLine.

    I meant as far as depth along the line as a whole. Talent is talent.
