Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB
More right than wrong for the Steelers, and a B to prove it.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Malachi Corley, pick No. 84, roughly 24 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for Jefferson left real value on the table behind him. The Steelers indulged a want in Frazier while a need in quarterback, edge rusher and other spots stayed open.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 21 they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. 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, edge rusher and other spots for later.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley in pick No. 84 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dadrion Taylor-Demerson at Round 3, Pick 35 is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
A slide stopped in No. 119, with Andru Phillips worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A real head-scratcher, Jordan Jefferson in the 158th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Marist Liufau
Nice patience on Marist Liufau, who had no business lasting to pick 178. It fills a real need, too.
Pick184 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in the 184th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Somehow Jha'Quan Jackson was still sitting there in slot 195, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
