Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Steelers kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Nobody else had Jordan White anywhere near No. 222. The Steelers did, by 45 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
Avieon Terrell in pick 20 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick69 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
No drama and no debate, Michael Taaffe went about where he belonged in No. 69. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick80 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
Good price on A.J. Haulcy in the 80th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84 Rnd3 Ian Strong
Ian Strong at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
They did well to land Malachi Fields in the 96th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick99 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
They paid a round early for D'Angelo Ponds in slot 99, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jack Endries
They took Jack Endries at par in slot 104, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones at No. 116 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick119 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at the 119th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard at the 132nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick145 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A real head-scratcher, DJ Campbell in pick No. 145 is miles ahead of his ranking. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
A conviction pick on Jacob Rodriguez at pick 148 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
They jumped the gun on Aaron Graves, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
Bryce Boettcher in Round 5, Pick 26 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick175 Rnd5 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at the 175th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick201 Rnd6 Dane Key
Dane Key at pick 201 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick212 Rnd6 Quinten Joyner
They paid sticker price for Quinten Joyner in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick213 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They paid up for Trey Zuhn III at slot 213 when waiting would have done the job. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jordan White
They talked themselves into Jordan White at pick No. 222, and the board did not agree. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick223 Rnd7 Malik Hartford
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Malik Hartford. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jerry Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Jerry Wilson at the 234th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
