Will Fuller

Watson-Fuller combo has been tough to beat

I have interest in Will Fuller. He’s had a lot of issues with injuries, but when he’s healthy, he’s been pretty special with Deshaun Watson.

Those guys have played 11 games together. Fuller has caught 45 passes for 782 yards and 11 touchdowns in those games, averaging 17.4 per catch. Who wouldn’t like to have that kind of production in their lineup?

Fuller, on the other hand, has been remarkably awful when they put other, lesser options at quarterback. Fuller in his last 11 games with Houston starting other quarterbacks has caught only 32 passes for 302 yards, with no touchdowns. That’s only 9.4 yards per catch – just over half as much.

Fuller is coming off reconstructive knee surgery. He suffered the injury on a long touchdown in the mid-season Thursday night win over Miami. Let’s see where he’s at in camp, but I would be willing to spend a draft pick on Fuller.
