Big-bodied UAB swing piece with real starting experience
Baron Franks II brings real value as a seasoned, 6-foot-5, 300-pound offensive lineman who started 21 games at Norfolk State before joining UAB in 2024, giving the Blazers a battle-tested, versatile lineman with tackle background and interior reps. In UAB’s 2025 roster, he’s listed as a redshirt senior, and one 2025 game note showed him stepping in at left guard and posting UAB’s top pass-blocking grade vs. North Texas, allowing just one pressure on 49 pass sets. If you want a physical, experienced lineman who can plug holes and compete, he’s very much your guy.
