Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB
Smith should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Steelers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Smith value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a long-term starter on the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick61 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at slot 61 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at No. 98 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A want over a need in pick 119: Beaux Limmer adds an offensive lineman while interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They went early on Jordan Travis in pick No. 164, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 178th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at pick 195 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick201 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in slot 201 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
