Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Steelers turned the phones into found money: A-.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Steelers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.

The Puni pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, running back and other spots. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In slot 25 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A reach on Zak Zinter in pick 89; the board had better options right there. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick92 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 92nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
They jumped the gun on Leonard Taylor III, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick117 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick No. 117 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Dominick Puni at offensive lineman with quarterback, running back and other spots open.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at the 135th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd5 James Williams
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Williams. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Javon Baker
No drama and no debate, Javon Baker went about where he belonged in No. 187. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
