Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureD
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Smith: B-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Steelers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

On value alone, Smith makes the weekend a net positive. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Powers-Johnson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, running back and other spots. The Powers-Johnson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a long-term starter on the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jackson Powers-Johnson at offensive lineman with edge rusher, running back and other spots open.
Pick52 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No edge and no loss on T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Josh Newton
No drama and no debate, Josh Newton went about where he belonged in No. 84. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Circle this one: Tykee Smith at the 119th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in pick 120 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on De'Corian Clark. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 241 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
