Travis Fulgham NFL Draft 2019: Scouting Report for Detroit Lions' Pick
STRENGTHS
—Excellent body control to adjust to poorly thrown balls.
—High-point plucker.
—Route-running skills to sit in zones and find space; quarterback's best friend with his positioning and hands.
—Willing blocker with the size (6'2", 215 pounds) to move safeties and linebackers.
WEAKNESSES
—Average to above-average speed makes him unlikely to separate vertically.
—Won't scare opponents with runs after a catch. May be hard to bring down but isn't speedy or shifty.
—Lackadaisical on routes and will have to clean up breaks out of his stem.
—Struggled to separate in Conference USA and didn't face top-tier cover men.
OVERALL
A former walk-on at Old Dominion, Travis Fulgham provides a big target and has excellent body control to pull in tough catches. He'll rely on making contested grabs because he can't get much separation, but he has proved he can be successful that way.
GRADE: 5.75 (ROUND 4 - BACKUP CALIBER)
