Man Coverage Skills - Sticky! Love his patience at the line of scrimmage and transitions well and with persistent length to squeeze and filter route releases to stay on the body. He'll overrun hard comeback routes just a tad but his work in trail is really, really nice. He'll eclipse his man in the trail and has range to reach around receivers to attack the ball.
Zone Coverage Skills - He'll work in the deep third zone and can protect deep integrity just fine — but routes that break off stem in front of his face will get plenty of room for well timed throws to zip into throwing windows. Less dynamic when detached from the frame of receivers — he can fulfill these roles but takes him away from strength.
Feet/COD - His footwork at the line of scrimmage is really clean. Appreciate his cadence to stay square while receivers attack their release. He's got little issue with flipping himself and accelerating vertically. Once his stride opens, he does admittedly have a bit of a delay sinking to gear down if he's too high on the upfield shoulder.
Ball Skills - Has been trained (well) to react late to hands flashing. He isn't a true ball hawk because he's attacking the catch point instead of preempting the ball on vertical shots. His length, body control and hand-eye coordination are effective and he's violent to rip through hands and dislodge the ball.
Flexibility - Hips are fluid. Shows very good knee/hip bend and drop in his stance to play stout as he stabs at the line of scrimmage. When he's attacked vertically he's really clean to flip and when routes break quickly he's throw himself open and roll through momentum to accelerate. Body control is a plus for his stature.
Acceleration - He's got very good long speed. His short area agility isn't where he'll hang his hat but to open up while on the body of vertical route stems, he can reliably left on an island and will have little issue going stride for stride. Click and close is a different story, but frequently playing him off also will fail to service his strengths.
Defensive Spacing - His rangy wingspan shows up here. He's conceded have a step at the release of a throw and found himself back into the play. Quick game can nickel and dime him but if you try to hi-lo him or squeeze back shoulder throws against him, he's got the reach to mask any separation he's conceding at catch point.
Competitive Toughness - Physical! He's a persistent press corner who doesn't give real estate easy. He's feisty to stack receivers and discard them with authority and functional strength on the edge. He's not a head hunter and he's not a booming tackler in the alley but he's confident and a persistent finisher none the less.
Run Support - Effort here is satisfactory. He'll press to squeeze down the perimeter and shows ability to reset his hands and work out of disadvantages when receivers run him off the line of scrimmage in man. He's not super quick to step up from off coverage but rather calculated and picks and chooses his spots to attack.
Tackling - He's got a length tackle radius and his flexibility and contortion skills flash here to get enough of himself onto runners on the edge. He's fairly lean framed so don't expect him to drop the hammer — but he's not afraid of contact and doesn't shy away from tackle challenges.

Player Summary - Kristian Fulton is a terrific cornerback prospect, primarily for press man or bump and run heavy coverage defenses. With Fulton's long frame, he's not at his best when leveraged over top of routes but if provided the chance to play in phase and attack targets from the hip, Fulton is a high end cover corner with excellent mirror skills, physicality, length and tackling. Fulton hasn't found much in the way of ball production, but he's also a blanket in man coverage who often won't get tested.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen
