The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Howard: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Will Howard had no business being available in No. 156, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

If Conner pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Alec Pierce gives the group a proven body among the projects.

On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In slot 30 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 12, with Derrick Harmon worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick80 Rnd3 Deone Walker
No edge and no loss on Deone Walker in pick 80; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the 83rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick123 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at No. 123 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick156 Rnd5 Will Howard
They robbed the room for Will Howard here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. The roster fit checks out.
Pick229 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner in pick No. 229 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor itch, scratched.
