Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

The needs board said one thing and the Steelers did another, using pick 51 on Zach Frazier while quarterback, safety and other spots waited.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Washington.

The Davis reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 20 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A surprising call. With quarterback, safety and other spots still to address, they spent slot 51 on Zach Frazier, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
A clean, defensible pick in No. 84 with a little surplus value in Jermaine Burton. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James at the 98th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis at pick 119 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick178 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in the 178th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick195 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Tahj Washington worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
