Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Steelers robbed the room for Brownlee Jr.. Final grade: B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Steelers fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

On value alone, Brownlee Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Graham Barton
No drama and no debate, Graham Barton went about where he belonged in pick No. 28. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at slot 51 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
A slide stopped in No. 71, with Ruke Orhorhoro worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A curious use of Round 3, Pick 20. Tight end needed the pick; an offensive lineman in Dominick Puni did not.
Pick103 Rnd4 Audric Estime
By-the-book stuff, Audric Estime at pick 103 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick118 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick119 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They paid up for Mohamed Kamara at slot 119 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Taking Jarvis Brownlee Jr. in No. 133 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick194 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A straight-up fair deal on Joe Milton III at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick240 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens slid further than he should have, and the 240th overall pick is lovely value for the safety. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
