Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D
ValueF NeedB TradesC+ FutureD
A franchise passer in Allar headlines a D weekend for the Steelers.

The Steelers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Raul Aguirre Jr. at Round 3, Pick 21 regardless, 372 picks early. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Tate. Everything downstream of Drew Allar depends on Drew Allar, and the building knows it. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Drew Allar
In slot 16 they get a franchise quarterback, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In pick 20 they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. Need was not the driver here.
Pick78 Rnd3 Eric Rivers
They left a pile of value on the table to take Eric Rivers this early at pick No. 78. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85 Rnd3 Raul Aguirre Jr.
Raul Aguirre Jr. at the 85th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Kelby Collins
Kelby Collins in Round 3, Pick 35 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jeremiah Cobb
Jeremiah Cobb at the 120th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick133 Rnd4 Dylan Morris
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dylan Morris. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Dillon Thieneman
Somehow Dillon Thieneman was still sitting there in the Round 5 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick212 Rnd6 Chandler Rivers
Taking Chandler Rivers in the 212th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Carnell Tate
The board fumbled Carnell Tate all the way to pick No. 234, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
