Draft Grade — Steelers

Grand theft in No. 121: the Steelers steal Stowers and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Eli Stowers had no business being available in Round 4, Pick 21, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The Dunker pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and running back. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In pick No. 21 they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot.
Pick53 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in Round 2, Pick 21 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick76 Rnd3 Gennings Dunker
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 76 on Gennings Dunker with edge rusher and running back unsolved.
Pick85 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in the 85th pick, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at No. 99 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Eli Stowers
Somehow Eli Stowers was still sitting there in the 121st overall pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Will Lee III is a better player than slot 135 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick161 Rnd5 Cade Klubnik
Steal is underselling it; Cade Klubnik at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Eric McAlister
They will replay Eric McAlister at pick 216 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Tyren Montgomery
Tyren Montgomery at the 224th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick230 Rnd7 Red Murdock
The board fumbled Red Murdock all the way to slot 230, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237 Rnd7 TJ Hall
TJ Hall slid further than he should have, and pick No. 237 is lovely value for the cornerback. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
