Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall
B
ValueB+

TradesB-
FutureB-
The Steelers checked most of the boxes and earned a B. For all the boxes ticked, the Steelers skipped the loudest one: interior defensive lineman is exactly as bare as it was. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Makai Lemon
In pick No. 20 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51
Rnd2
Garrett Nussmeier
A tidy little value on Garrett Nussmeier in the 51st pick, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
