TANK WILLIAMS: Tank Williams at the 2020 NFL Combine with LSU quarterback Kristian Fulton. So Kristian, tell me, how beneficial is it to you when you have guys that you can call on like a Tyron Matthew or Tre'Davious White, like having those guys in your back pocket. How much does that help you throughout this process?
KRISTIAN FULTON: Great, because these guys who's been in league and they've separated themselves in the league. I would classify them as the top defensive backs in the league. Also, I've been been talking to Pat P lately, and so definitely getting tips from him and how he's elevated his game in the league. I feel like he's second to none as far as getting advice from guys.
TANK WILLIAMS: And is there one cornerback in the league right now that you model your game after the most?
KRISTIAN FULTON: I would say Tre-Davious White. Just watching him-- I first met him when he was a senior. So just watching him and how he prepared. I see that being a technician, that is going to take you a long way and elevate your game. So I definitely would say Tre-Davious
TANK WILLIAMS: All right. And is there one wide receiver you're looking forward to matching up with?
KRISTIAN FULTON: I would say the LSU guys, the Odell's, DJ Chark, those guys. They made a name for themselves in the league. And it's fun. I went against DJ Chark practice, so it's going to be fun to go against him in the game.
TANK WILLIAMS: Yeah. I mean, because it's one of things when you go against a guy and practice, you can't really talk that much. But once you see him on the other side, especially in the league, you get to get at him a little bit. So that makes it a little bit more fun, right?
KRISTIAN FULTON: Yes, sir.
TANK WILLIAMS: Yeah well, I enjoyed watching you at college, man. Congrats on winning the national championship. Good luck out this draft process. I look forward to seeing you ball out on Sundays.
KRISTIAN FULTON: Yes, sir. Thank you. Appreciate it.
