It seemed in the Tulane game that Fuller very often found himself matched up w/ their best WR. Sometimes that worked to our favor when they ran a quick WR screen to the same side and Fuller was there and could tackle better than a CB, but sometimes he got beat pretty easily in coverage.

I know it depends on the coverage we're in, but then Tulane started bring their best WR in motion knowing that it would be Fuller rotating over and matching up w/ him. We'll lose that matchup most times if that's KJ Hamler I'd have to believe.

My question is, what do we do to prevent that from happening? I only caught it happening a few times, but I wasn't paying that much attention as it was Tulane. Wouldn't we rather have a CB in that position or do we just take our chances and hope that Fuller evens things out against the run and the screen game?
