Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
Nobody dealt better than the Steelers this weekend: A-.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Steelers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.

Reaching for Burks left real value on the table behind him. That Reese pick is the receipt they will wave around later. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Bottom line, with Arvell Reese leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get the heartbeat of the defense at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
A real head-scratcher, Jacob Rodriguez in slot 76 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85 Rnd3 Deion Burks
Deion Burks at the 85th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Harold Perkins Jr.. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick121 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford in pick 121 is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
