The Steelers spent real capital to be 98 picks early on Jaylen Harrell, and the board is going to hold them to it. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

So much rides on J.J. McCarthy that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
