Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Tampa: B-.

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: T.J. Tampa, the No. 51 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 85 like a gift left on the doorstep. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Steelers indulged a want in Frazier while a need in quarterback, safety and other spots stayed open.

They are betting Jacobs proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a building block for the line at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A want over a need in pick No. 51: Zach Frazier adds an offensive lineman while quarterback, safety and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick85 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, T.J. Tampa in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick98 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in slot 98, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
Steal is underselling it; DeWayne Carter at the 119th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick156 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
They did well to land Dallin Holker in pick 156, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Value said wait; Curtis Jacobs in the 178th overall pick says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195 Rnd6 Myles Cole
A straight-up fair deal on Myles Cole at No. 195, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
