Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Steelers to leave a draft.

The Taylor III reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Coleman falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 20 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick84 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
The board had cheaper options than Leonard Taylor III at Round 3, Pick 20, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A reach on Cedric Gray in No. 118; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They paid sticker price for Beaux Limmer in slot 119, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick194 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in the 194th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Owens at pick 240. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
