Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureA+
The Steelers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: Taulia Tagovailoa, the No. 220 name on the board, sitting there at the 242nd overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The cost of the Nugent reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Steelers indulged a want in Nugent while a need in running back and tight end stayed open.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 53 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick57 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They took T'Vondre Sweat at par in pick 57, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick89 Rnd3 Junior Colson
A quiet steal in the 89th overall pick: Junior Colson for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick90 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at pick No. 90 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick92 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at Round 3, Pick 29 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 104th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
No drama and no debate, Darius Robinson went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Drake Nugent
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Drake Nugent in pick 120 leaves running back and tight end for later.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A want over a need in No. 121: Javon Foster adds an offensive lineman while running back and tight end keeps waiting.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kris Abrams-Draine in slot 125. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in pick 132 lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They did well to land Luke McCaffrey in pick No. 140, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Somehow Taulia Tagovailoa was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 22, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
