Draft Grade — Steelers

FutureB-
The Steelers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Hudson Card, 96 picks early at pick No. 229.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
Adding Garrett Wilson by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In pick 21 they get a sticky cover corner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick83
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Quinshon Judkins worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick121
Rnd4
Logan Brown
They talked themselves into Logan Brown at the 121st overall pick, and the board did not agree. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick161
Rnd5
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
Antwaun Powell-Ryland at No. 161 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223
Rnd7
Nick Nash
Nick Nash at Round 7, Pick 7 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick229
Rnd7
Hudson Card
Hudson Card in slot 229 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245
Rnd7
Micah Morris
Micah Morris at pick No. 245 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
