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

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: Domonique Orange, the No. 77 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 4 slot like a gift left on the doorstep.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In pick 21 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick53 Rnd2 Denzel Boston
Denzel Boston in the Round 2 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
Josiah Trotter at No. 76 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick85 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at pick No. 85 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
Steal is underselling it; Kamari Ramsey at slot 99 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange in Round 4, Pick 21 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick161 Rnd5 Charles Demmings
Value with a capital V on Charles Demmings in the 161st pick, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Sawyer Robertson in the 216th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick220 Rnd7 Dallen Bentley
Circle this one: Dallen Bentley at slot 220 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick224 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
Good price on Zavion Thomas in No. 224, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaiah Jatta. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
