Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers land in the muddy middle: C+.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Steelers reached some 32 spots for Logan Lee, and value like that does not grow back.

Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with quarterback, safety and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

On the needs board they went 4 of 9, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A curious use of pick No. 51. Quarterback, safety and other spots needed the pick; an offensive lineman in Sedrick Van Pran did not.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at the 84th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
They took Andru Phillips at par in the 98th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They reached a country mile for Tommy Eichenberg at pick 119, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A wild overpay on Logan Lee in No. 178, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick195 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire at the 195th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
