Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Steelers to a D.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Steelers shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Grant reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Ewers pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In No. 21 they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
By-the-book stuff, TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 19 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick100 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers is a better player than pick 100 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
