Nobody dealt better than the Steelers this weekend: D.

The Steelers did not so much draft Quinn Carroll as overpay for him, 297 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Alvin Kamara pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Quinn Carroll
In pick No. 11 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick156 Rnd5 Jake Smith
A big swing on Jake Smith at slot 156, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Andrew Armstrong
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Andrew Armstrong. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
