Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Steelers: C+.

The Steelers spent real capital to be 63 picks early on Sam Hartman, and the board is going to hold them to it. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while safety, edge rusher and other spots went begging. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

Hit on Amarius Mims and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went offensive lineman with Zach Frazier while clear needs at safety, edge rusher and other spots sat open.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malik Washington
They jumped the gun on Malik Washington, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cam Hart
By-the-book stuff, Cam Hart at pick 98 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
No drama and no debate, Tyler Davis went about where he belonged in No. 119. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They left a pile of value on the table to take Curtis Jacobs this early at Round 6, Pick 3. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick195 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in the 195th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
