Fade at ADP; Bo Nix's chaos limits big in-breaking routes; comparable-floor players have higher ceilings.
Courtland Sutton is ADP WR39 on Underdog with 12th in XFP per game and 15th in fantasy points per game over the last year and a half. Matt Harmon explicitly states he has not been drafting Sutton, citing his role as a big in-breaking route runner from the X receiver position—a role that is harder to execute with Bo Nix, who "puts himself in chaos at times" and struggles with longer-developing routes. Harmon notes that Troy Franklin out-targeted Sutton for stretches last season while playing the movement Z receiver role with easier looks. Sutton ranks 8th in yards per route run against man coverage but 40th against zone over the last three seasons. Harmon assesses Sutton as "several tiers lower of a player than Nico Collins" and prefers other receivers going around Sutton's ADP with comparable floors but higher potential ceilings. While Harmon likes Sutton at ADP, he expresses more bullish sentiment on Waddle in the same offense.
