After his lackluster performance on the field in his first season with the team, a chunk of Detroit Lions’ fans wanted Cameron Sutton gone. He is gone now, however unfortunately under the broader circumstances after a warrant for his arrest was made public this past week. The team released him the next day.
The trade to acquire Carlton Davis from the Buccaneers and the signing of Amik Robertson has greatly lessened the Lions’ need a cornerback. But it was resurfaced a bit more in the wake of the situation with Sutton, if only on the idea of adding another experienced player to the mix before the draft.
To paraphrase what general manager Brad Holmes said earlier this offseason, “you can never have too many corners.”
