Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall C
ValueF NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers land in the muddy middle: C.

The Steelers bet big and early on Kyle Ford, 308 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Trader Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes.

If JT Tuimoloau and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
In the 21st overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kyle Ford
Kyle Ford at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Carson Vinson
They reached into another round for Carson Vinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick156 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Good price on Trevor Etienne in the 156th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick185 Rnd6 Luke Elzinga
A wild overpay on Luke Elzinga in pick 185, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick231 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac in Round 7, Pick 15 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick253 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dante Trader Jr. in pick No. 253. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
