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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Steelers started one anyway for Beaux Limmer, 23 picks ahead of schedule.

It is not that Limmer is a bad player; it is that the Steelers had louder needs to answer first. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On value alone, Tampa makes the weekend a net positive.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 22 they get a building block for the line at fair value. More want than need.
Pick52 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
The board had T.J. Tampa higher than Round 2, Pick 20, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A tidy little value on Malachi Corley in the 84th pick, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They liked Jaden Hicks enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 97. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick120 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A surprising call. With edge rusher, running back and other spots still to address, they spent pick 120 on Beaux Limmer, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at slot 121 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They paid up for Gabe Hall at pick 198 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick238 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Steele Chambers. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
