The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... The Jets have agreed to terms with former Packers TE Franks, an NFL source has told the Daily News. Franks, a three-time Pro Bowler, is coming off one of his least productive seasons. But he provides depth, backing up Chris Baker.
Diehards Line:Franks, 30, was a starter for seven of his eight seasons in Green Bay. He recorded 256 career receptions for 2,300 yards and 32 touchdowns. His touchdown receptions are tied for the 10th-most in Packers' history. Injuries have slowed him in recent years. He has missed 14 games over the past three seasons with knee, neck and back injuries. ... It's worth noting the Jets strongly considered drafting Franks in 2000, when they had four first-round picks and selected TE Anthony Becht in the first round.
