Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureA
The Steelers robbed the room for Shough. Final grade: B.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tyler Shough fell into pick 214.

They are betting Pegues proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick68 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
A wild overpay on Darius Alexander in No. 68, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at slot 83 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Circle this one: Savion Williams at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick125 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
The board had Anthony Belton higher than the 125th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick156 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A big swing on JJ Pegues at Round 5, Pick 18, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick180 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing DJ Giddens in pick 180. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
They let Quincy Riley come to them and pounced at pick No. 185. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Taking Jaylen Reed in the 213th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick214 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
You do not let a quarterback like Tyler Shough reach slot 214 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick229 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Steal is underselling it; Raheim Sanders at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
