Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Steelers for Mitchell: B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Quinyon Mitchell at No. 51 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Kevin Byard gives the group a proven body among the projects. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick51 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
A cornerback of that caliber at the 51st overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84 Rnd3 Javon Baker
No edge and no loss on Javon Baker in No. 84; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at pick No. 98 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher in the 119th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick178 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
By-the-book stuff, Khristian Boyd at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 20. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
