Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Clark fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Somebody in slot 242 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while De'Corian Clark, the No. 195 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They will need Travis to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A straight-up fair deal on Edgerrin Cooper at the 53rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick85 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Fair-plus on Christian Mahogany, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick120 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at slot 120 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
The board had cheaper options than Jordan Travis at No. 121, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
They jumped the gun on Jase McClellan, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick242 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
They barely believed it either: De'Corian Clark still on the board at pick No. 242. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
