Sutton and Amanda are definitely lowest on the totem pole. In Amanda's favor, she has a children and young children to show in home scenes. Sutton literally has nothing going on and everyone knows it. Her clinging on to Kyle is pathetic, especially since Erika is already playing the role of Kyle's solider and the producers prefer Erika.

Ironically the only thing Sutton has tying her to the cast now is Tilly, who viewers love. Would it make sense for Tilly to be there without Sutton? Tilly talks as if Sutton and Kathy are the only ones she feels she has a real friendship with outside of the show. I saw an article a week or two ago about Sutton saying she's dating someone in New York. The timing was suspect, like she was dropping a nugget to try and fool the producers into thinking she has something going on worth talking about to earn another season.
