Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The war room fell hard for Carson Beck, and it showed at slot 53: 67 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Stukes value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The Steelers indulged a want in Jones while a need in edge rusher stayed open. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 8 of 9 of the wish list covered.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
They took Caleb Lomu at par in the Round 1 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick53 Rnd2 Carson Beck
They left a pile of value on the table to take Carson Beck this early at pick 53. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick76 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Fair-plus on Malachi Fields, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Taaffe at Round 3, Pick 21 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick99 Rnd3 Logan Jones
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Logan Jones at offensive lineman with edge rusher open.
Pick121 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
The board fumbled Treydan Stukes all the way to pick No. 121, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick135 Rnd4 Joe Royer
They let Joe Royer come to them and pounced at Round 4, Pick 35. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick161 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
Good price on Zxavian Harris in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick216 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
A straight-up fair deal on Kaelon Black at pick 216, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jimmy Rolder
They did well to land Jimmy Rolder in No. 224, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
A reach on Luke Altmyer in the 230th pick; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick237 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
Isaiah Jatta in the 237th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
