Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Steelers for Bernard: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Germie Bernard got past him. The Steelers do not have to explain a thing at No. 85.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had Allar lower, and that gap is the story. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In No. 21 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Need was not the driver here.
Pick48 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 48 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick64 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
Value with a capital V on Lee Hunter in slot 64, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick85 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
You do not let a wide receiver like Germie Bernard reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick135 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Will Lee III at pick 135 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Drew Allar
A reach for Drew Allar in the 147th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick216 Rnd6 Kendrick Law
The board fumbled Kendrick Law all the way to Round 6, Pick 35, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
They did well to land Miles Kitselman in the 230th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
They let Aiden Fisher come to them and pounced at the 237th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
