Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Steelers took Logan Lee at the 121st pick, roughly 34 spots before his name belonged.

The Frazier pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, edge rusher and other spots still on the board. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Wallace value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In slot 20 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value.
Pick52 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, edge rusher and other spots to take Zach Frazier, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick84 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
They took Marist Liufau at par in the 84th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick No. 120 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Logan Lee
They left a pile of value on the table to take Logan Lee this early at pick 121. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Omar Brown
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Omar Brown. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick238 Rnd7 Josh Wallace
The board had Josh Wallace higher than No. 238, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
