Why is everyone jumping on the "Cam Sutton for Safety" train???

Admittedly the Steelers Secondary could use a Safety to replace MM but why is everyone suddenly throwing Cam Sutton's name out there to fill that spot?

Admittedly he has a solid Football IQ and he excels at mirroring WRs.... but what do these skills have to do with playing Deep Safety in the NFL?

Lets look at his Physical Stats.

5'11: not to bad for a slot Corner or a Deep safety so no damage there.

Barely hit the 190lbs mark coming out of college: No issue for a CB but a Safety needs more Weight and Muscle IMO.

Don't get me Wrong here... I am Not saying he Couldn't play Safety... but why would we mortgage out CB future to fill a slot he's played maybe half a dozen times in his college career???

I will be the first person to admit I may be missing something here... but thru all my Tape I watched last year about Sutton, it never Once jumped into my head "Man he would make a Great Safety!"

So why are Ed Bouchette, Steelers Wire and 247 Sports suddenly touting Cam as the Next Great Steeler Safety???
