FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Dart in the fold, and a B for the Steelers. After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Steelers committed. Jaxson Dart is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. No fireworks, but a solid B.
Getting Lambert-Smith where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Jaxson Dart
In slot 32 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64
Rnd2
Deone Walker
Deone Walker at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick73
Rnd3
Tre Harris
They robbed the room for Tre Harris here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick95
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson slipping to No. 95 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick108
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cam Skattebo in the 108th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick110
Rnd4
Joshua Farmer
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Joshua Farmer. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162
Rnd5
Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson in the 162nd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at pick No. 185 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick229
Rnd7
KeAndre Lambert-Smith
The board fumbled KeAndre Lambert-Smith all the way to No. 229, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the 245th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
