FutureA
The Steelers lost the trade table, and the D tells the story. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Steelers started one anyway for Carson Beck, 45 picks ahead of schedule. A D that will need time and luck to look better.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The Stephens pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher still on the board. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
They banked enough surplus on Igbinosun to cover a lot of smaller sins.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
In the 27th overall pick they get a three-down second-level presence. A real need, handled.
Pick51
Rnd2
Christen Miller
Christen Miller is a better player than pick 51 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick52
Rnd2
Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan at slot 52 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick62
Rnd2
Carson Beck
Value said wait; Carson Beck in Round 2, Pick 30 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick71
Rnd3
Keionte Scott
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 71, where Keionte Scott graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85
Rnd3
Kamari Ramsey
Kamari Ramsey slipping to No. 85 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bryce Lance. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jack Endries
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jack Endries at pick No. 120 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick121
Rnd4
Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at slot 130 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135
Rnd4
Beau Stephens
A want over a need in pick 135: Beau Stephens adds an offensive lineman while edge rusher keeps waiting.
Pick145
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
The board fumbled Davison Igbinosun all the way to No. 145, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick159
Rnd5
Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry slid further than he should have, and Round 5, Pick 21 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick185
Rnd6
Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson in the 185th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick196
Rnd6
Jimmy Rolder
Jimmy Rolder at the 196th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick199
Rnd6
Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in Round 6, Pick 20 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick213
Rnd6
Harrison Wallace III
Somehow Harrison Wallace III was still sitting there in pick 213, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick214
Rnd6
Le'Veon Moss
A quiet steal in slot 214: Le'Veon Moss for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick224
Rnd7
Kaden Wetjen
Nothing to complain about; Kaden Wetjen went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick237
Rnd7
Miller Moss
Miller Moss in the Round 7 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
