Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Steelers took Brandon Baker a full 62 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The Atkins pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 David Stone
In the 16th pick they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick47 Rnd2 Brandon Baker
Brandon Baker at No. 47 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick77 Rnd3 Bray Hubbard
Fair-plus on Bray Hubbard, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Kingston Lopa
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kingston Lopa in the 82nd overall pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148 Rnd5 Xavier Atkins
Xavier Atkins in slot 148 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick190 Rnd6 DJ Lagway
They robbed the room for DJ Lagway here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick195 Rnd6 Taylor Wein
Somehow Taylor Wein was still sitting there in No. 195, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick224 Rnd7 Boo Carter
They reached a country mile for Boo Carter at the 224th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick239 Rnd7 Matt Rose
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Matt Rose at the 239th pick is the proof. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
