Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Haynes King, 84 picks early at the Round 6 slot. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Strong falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In No. 16 they get a rangy last line of defense, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick47 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at pick 47 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Omar Cooper Jr. this early at the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby in Round 3, Pick 14 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick99 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
They paid up for D'Angelo Ponds at slot 99 when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
Pick117 Rnd4 Ian Strong
Ian Strong in the 117th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick133 Rnd4 Taylen Green
Taylen Green in Round 4, Pick 33 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick156 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They read the board right and Ar'maj Reed-Adams was the payoff at pick No. 156. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick213 Rnd6 Haynes King
This one needs a full-page explanation: Haynes King in No. 213, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick214 Rnd6 Lee Hunter
Nice patience on Lee Hunter, who had no business lasting to the 214th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick218 Rnd7 Dane Key
They let Dane Key come to them and pounced at slot 218. It fills a real need, too.
Pick229 Rnd7 Solomon Tuliaupupu
Solomon Tuliaupupu at the 229th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
