Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Pierce: B.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Hollin Pierce fell into pick No. 159. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
No edge and no loss on Alfred Collins in slot 52; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick86 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at pick No. 86 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122 Rnd4 Devin Neal
The board fumbled Devin Neal all the way to the 122nd pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick159 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Somehow Hollin Pierce was still sitting there in the 159th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick163 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
They will replay Kurtis Rourke at No. 163 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
They robbed the room for Jaylen Reed here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick231 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at Round 7, Pick 13 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick247 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
They took Torricelli Simpkins III at par in the 247th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
