Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D+
ValueF NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The board sent warnings the Steelers ignored, and it shows: D+.

The Steelers went off the board in a big way for Roderick Robinson II, 304 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. The process wobbled, and the D+ is where it lands.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. On value alone, Tuliaupupu makes the weekend a net positive.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Roderick Robinson II
Roderick Robinson II in No. 21 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick53 Rnd2 Rod Moore
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Rod Moore well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 John Mateer
A big swing on John Mateer at pick 76, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick85 Rnd3 Eli Bowen
A wild overpay on Eli Bowen in slot 85, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Conner Weigman
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Conner Weigman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick121 Rnd4 Ben Roberts
Somehow Ben Roberts was still sitting there in the 121st overall pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick135 Rnd4 Derek Williams Jr.
Derek Williams Jr. at pick No. 135 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159 Rnd5 Tavion Gadson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tavion Gadson in the Round 5 slot, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick213 Rnd6 Solomon Tuliaupupu
Solomon Tuliaupupu at slot 213 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Mark Nabou Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Mark Nabou Jr. at the 214th pick, and it noticed. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick224 Rnd7 Antonio Kite
They paid up for Antonio Kite at Round 7, Pick 8 when waiting would have done the job. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jelani Thurman
Jelani Thurman in No. 237 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
