Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on McCaffrey: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Luke McCaffrey slide, and the Steelers were the ones holding the card at the 178th overall pick. Highway robbery.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Limmer pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick81 Rnd3 Max Melton
A tidy little value on Max Melton in the 81st overall pick, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock at No. 90 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97 Rnd3 Javon Baker
No drama and no debate, Javon Baker went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 34. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in the 114th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Beaux Limmer at offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick120 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mason McCormick in slot 153. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick178 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
You do not let a wide receiver like Luke McCaffrey reach pick 178 and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
A clean, defensible pick in pick 195 with a little surplus value in M.J. Devonshire. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
