Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 99th pick lands the Steelers a B-, Corleone and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Dontay Corleone at the Round 3 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Every board in the league had Lane lower, and that gap is the story. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value.
Pick53 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in the 53rd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
They reached a country mile for Ja'Kobi Lane at pick 76, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick85 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in No. 85 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick99 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at slot 99 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
They liked Harold Perkins Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 121. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick135 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
They took J.C. Davis at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick161 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at the 161st overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jaydn Ott
They reached into another round for Jaydn Ott, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kendrick Law
You do not let a wide receiver like Kendrick Law reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
Desmond Reid at slot 230 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Value said wait; Barion Brown in No. 237 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
