Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Hampton fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Omarion Hampton fell into pick 83.

Every board in the league had Smith lower, and that gap is the story. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick52 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Somehow Matthew Golden was still sitting there in slot 52, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the 83rd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at pick No. 122 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick163 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Darius Alexander reach No. 163 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith at the 225th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
Kitan Crawford at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brandon Adams
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brandon Adams. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
