Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB
Good, not great, for the Steelers: B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Steelers reached some 62 spots for Garrett Dellinger, and value like that does not grow back.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Rourke pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 30 they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
A clean, defensible pick in No. 61 with a little surplus value in Jayden Higgins. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick102 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Nice patience on Darius Alexander, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 38. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Joshua Farmer at pick No. 123 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick156 Rnd5 Kurtis Rourke
They read the board right and Kurtis Rourke was the payoff at slot 156. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick174 Rnd5 DJ Giddens
They did well to land DJ Giddens in the 174th pick, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in slot 185. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at pick No. 229 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
