Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Steelers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Steelers spent the 237th pick on Dominic Zvada, a name the board had a full 70 spots lower. Put together, it is a D-.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with cornerback, linebacker and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. Landing Stowers that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick25 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
No edge and no loss on KC Concepcion in the 25th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick53 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks is a better player than the 53rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Drew Shelton
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Drew Shelton at offensive lineman with cornerback, linebacker and other spots open.
Pick85 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
They robbed the room for Eli Stowers here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick99 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange in No. 99 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Bud Clark
Bud Clark slipping to No. 121 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick135 Rnd4 Malik Benson
A conviction pick on Malik Benson at the 135th pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick161 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Fair-plus on Drew Allar, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jack Pyburn
Jack Pyburn in slot 224 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at Round 7, Pick 14 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dominic Zvada. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
