Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Steelers won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The Steelers bet big and early on Jaxson Dart, 55 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Judkins at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

Joshua Palmer gives the group a proven body among the projects.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick No. 22 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They robbed the room for Malaki Starks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jaxson Dart. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick86 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in No. 86 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick161 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
No edge and no loss on Dorian Strong in Round 5, Pick 24; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick223 Rnd7 Nick Nash
A big swing on Nick Nash at pick 223, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick No. 229 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick245 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at Round 7, Pick 29 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
