Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Steelers: B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jalen Milroe; the Steelers did not wait, grabbing him 40 spots ahead at slot 54.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Pegues pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 31st pick they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at Round 2, Pick 22 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Tai Felton
By-the-book stuff, Tai Felton at pick No. 95 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick133 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They took Hollin Pierce at par in No. 133, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick156 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Quincy Riley at pick 156 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing DJ Giddens in the Round 6 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick202 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
Quietly one of the better values of the day, JJ Pegues at the Round 6 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
