Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Steelers let Coleman fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Steelers fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

However the rest shakes out, Coleman at that price is a win they earned. The cost of the Reed reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

It is not that Frazier is a bad player; it is that the Steelers had louder needs to answer first.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In slot 32 they get a blindside protector, outstanding value to boot.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went offensive lineman with Zach Frazier while clear needs at tight end sat open.
Pick64 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They robbed the room for Keon Coleman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
No drama and no debate, Khyree Jackson went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 James Williams
No edge and no loss on James Williams in pick No. 121; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at the 125th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick133 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Fair-plus on Mohamed Kamara, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick197 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A conviction pick on Gabe Hall at slot 197 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209 Rnd6 Austin Reed
Value said wait; Austin Reed in Round 6, Pick 34 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. is a better player than No. 238 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
