As of a week ago Friday, Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Cameron Sutton is set to become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the 2023 NFL league year in March due to his contract officially voiding. That event was expected to happen and on the heels of it, we can now further speculate as to what his market value might be. Today, we will take a look at Sutton’s projected market value using some advanced analytics from Pro Football Focus and Pro Football Reference
The first look advanced analytics look that I asked our own Clayton Eckert to do revolved around seeing where Sutton ranks collectively in PFF coverage and run defense grades over the course of the last three seasons when compared to other NFL cornerbacks currently earning a yearly average of $10 million more per season, per Over the Cap.
