In round four, the Chiefs drafted Missouri Tigers wide receiver Will Franklin with the 105th overall pick. Franklin was a bust in Kansas City, recording seven receptions for 83 yards in his first and only season as a Chief. Franklin spent time on the Lions’ and Raiders’ practice squads, but neither worked out for him. He is currently a free agent.

Kansas City drafted the dynamic duo in cornerbacks in 2008. They scored Brandon Flowers in the second round and later selected Brandon Carr in the fifth round. Carr spent four seasons in Kansas City and was a great corner for the Chiefs. He had 211 tackles, eight interceptions, and recovered six fumbles. Carr signed with the Dallas Cowboys before the 2012 season.
