Will Fuller probably ran close to as many routes his last year at Notre Dame as Christian Watson did in his entire career at North Dakota State. Watson ran like 350 routes, total, over the course of 4 seasons (3 as starter).
He very well could be a BIGGER version of Fuller.
Again. Not advocating for a first-rounder on him or even a trade up. But the pushback against him is a little over the top. And you especially are underplaying his ceiling.
What the real key is - and we only have murky information about - is how well/quickly he took to coaching on route running at the Senior Bowl. There are written reports of him needing a lot of extra attention on route running at the Senior Bowl. He has the physical traits for it, and there are clips of him doing "little guy" things on releases at the line.
Just a matter of how he took to it.
