Let's see what he does during the season
I hope it will be the case for the season!
Sounds like Hargrave is OK...

Good news on Sutton....was hoping to hear that Golson was getting noticed as well.
My favorite pick in this draft.
Here is a great read on Tomlin's visit with Sutton.
Smarts and hearts...
Sutton's football IQ wows Steelers
“Then Kevin Colbert steps in and says, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa. You’re playing us. We don’t go for that game. You’ve rehearsed this. Take that game out. I want the second quarter of the Nebraska game.’ So they put the second quarter of the Nebraska game in, and Cam Sutton does the same thing, saying everyone’s assignment.
“Mike Tomlin comes out and says, ‘Butch, I need to see you.’ I said, ‘What’s up?’ He goes, ‘In all my years of coaching, I’ve never been through an interview like that. He could tell us everything.’
“I think that’s why they drafted him.”

I'm really hyped about Sutton. When we drafted him, I talked to a friend of mine who's a big Vols fan and he told me that Sutton was very underrated and we got a steal. I can't wait to see him on the field.

If Jones has already been impressive in the OTA as a rookie, we have to mention it was against our horrible o-line in 2013, probably the worst in steelers history, especially in the first half of the season due to our horrible o-line coach.

I'm reading that he's considered an outside chance to make the 53. After the Spence injuries, and him making the 53, I'm not sure why Golson gets no love. To me the idea of Sutton, Golson, Burns, and Cockrell rotating outside with Gay and Sensabaugh manning the slot, would be a dream scenario. Not sure Brian Allen makes the 53 but would love to keep him on PS for a season.
While that is true, the context of what I was saying is Spence had fan support, where Golson has had none. For the most part. Spence missed his first 2 seasons and most fans on here were very supportive and looking forward to his return. To my way of thinking, Golson has more potential than Spence did. But, Golson gets none of the love Spence did. Why Spence over Golson?
Is that you Ben?

I'd wait until four weeks in camp before calling him an extra first round pick. I not counting but didn't 19 other corners come off the board before him?
I'll be happy is Sutton can play the slot and add to the dime defense. He's a little light, and not fast, so he'd better have impeccable technique and a high football IQ.
May have got caught up in the Sutton mania a little, but the thought was were he may have gone in 2016 if he had not gone back to school, plus a little of where he may have gone this year if not for his injury. I really liked the kid last year, and liked what I saw of him in the past year. Still, like I said, only time will tell.

Allow me to clarify:
I'm not basing my opinion on minicamp/OTAs. I'm basing it on the fact that I had Sutton pegged as a late R1 pick in the 2016 draft. Getting him one year (and two rounds) later is a steal IMO.
Aside from Dobbs, he's probably the smartest player in this draft.
