Bsd DRAFTING FOR THESteelers

Draft Grade — Steelers

Larceny in the 178th pick lands the Steelers a B-, Pritchett and all. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Nehemiah Pritchett, the No. 143 name on the board, stolen at the 178th overall pick. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. It is not that Frazier is a bad player; it is that the Steelers had louder needs to answer first. They will need Lee to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
JC Latham
In No. 20 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Zach Frazier in Round 2, Pick 19 leaves quarterback, safety and other spots for later.
Pick84
Rnd3
Malik Washington
They liked Malik Washington enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 84. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in slot 98 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119
Rnd4
James Williams
They took James Williams at par in the 119th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick178
Rnd6
Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at the 178th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195
Rnd6
Logan Lee
A premium they did not need to pay, Logan Lee a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
