Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureC
Larceny in the 93rd pick lands the Steelers a B, Sainristil and all.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Steelers came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Sainristil falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 JC Latham
JC Latham at No. 20 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick51 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A tidy bit of business in slot 51, where Keon Coleman graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They will replay Mike Sainristil at pick 93 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick98 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They paid up for Maason Smith at Round 3, Pick 35 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 119 with a little surplus value in Cedric Gray. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
A quiet steal in the Round 6 slot: Dwight McGlothern for less than the market said. It fills a real need, too.
