Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Nobody dealt better than the Steelers this weekend: B.

The Steelers clearly saw something nobody else did in Josh Proctor, taking him 92 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Singer. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Mims pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with running back and tight end still on the board.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick50 Rnd2 Marist Liufau
They talked themselves into Marist Liufau at slot 50, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick55 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in pick 55 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
A straight-up fair deal on Ruke Orhorhoro at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Amarius Mims
They bypassed pressing needs at running back and tight end to take Amarius Mims, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick73 Rnd3 Cooper DeJean
Circle this one: Cooper DeJean at pick No. 73 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick97 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton at the 97th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler in the 102nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick123 Rnd4 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at pick No. 123 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd5 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick 139 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Tyler Guyton
The board fumbled Tyler Guyton all the way to slot 157, and they scooped it up. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick201 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They reached a country mile for Josh Proctor at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Dorian Singer
Dorian Singer in Round 7, Pick 24 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
