Overall B-

A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Steelers did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to quarterback, which was the need that mattered most. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The cost of the Mesidor reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They went 2 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The back end got a real overhaul.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In pick 21 they get a potential shutdown corner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
A premium they did not need to pay, Akheem Mesidor a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
