Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureD-
The Steelers let Skattebo fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Cam Skattebo slide, and the Steelers were the ones holding the card at the Round 7 slot. Highway robbery. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Job largely done: safety settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
No edge and no loss on Luther Burden III in the 21st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick52 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They robbed the room for Omarion Hampton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick161 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
You do not let a safety like Lathan Ransom reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick223 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
They barely believed it either: Cam Skattebo still on the board at pick No. 223. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Lander Barton
Somehow Lander Barton was still sitting there in pick 229, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at the 245th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
