Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The Steelers bet the future on Dart. The board says B+.

The Steelers spent the pick that matters most on Jaxson Dart, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Landing Gordon II that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. 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
Pick31 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In No. 31 they get their quarterback of the future. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at Round 2, Pick 31 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick83 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 83rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at slot 123 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tory Horton
You do not let a wide receiver like Tory Horton reach pick No. 133 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick156 Rnd5 Cody Simon
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Cody Simon in the 156th pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Upton Stout
They paid sticker price for Upton Stout in pick 185, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
