Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Milroe: D+.

Somebody took the Steelers to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Milroe value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick 21 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
A reasonable price with a little left over, Derrick Harmon in the 37th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in No. 123 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick156 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
You do not let a running back like Brashard Smith reach Round 5, Pick 18 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 CJ West
They took CJ West at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw at pick No. 229 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
