Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Lassiter fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: Kamari Lassiter, the No. 41 name on the board, sitting there at No. 98 like a gift left on the doorstep. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If Hall pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 20 they get a blindside protector at fair value.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They will replay Kool-Aid McKinstry at slot 51 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in Round 3, Pick 20 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kamari Lassiter
They barely believed it either: Kamari Lassiter still on the board at pick 98. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick119 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Somehow Brenden Rice was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick178 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Curtis Jacobs well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick195 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
This one needs a full-page explanation: Gabe Hall in the 195th overall pick, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
