Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA FutureB
The Steelers let Ponds fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how D'Angelo Ponds got past him. The Steelers do not have to explain a thing at slot 76. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a No. 1 receiver, and a steal at that.
Pick76 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at the 76th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A quiet steal in slot 85: Michael Taaffe for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad at the 99th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick100 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
By-the-book stuff, Nicholas Singleton at No. 100 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick135 Rnd4 Isaiah World
Isaiah World at pick No. 135 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick159 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar is a better player than pick 159 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick199 Rnd6 Ted Hurst
Steal is underselling it; Ted Hurst at the 199th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Cole Payton
Cole Payton in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
Good price on John Michael Gyllenborg in Round 7, Pick 38, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
