Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Steelers a B+.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Steven Parker at pick No. 229, a reach of 93 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

On value alone, Stutsman makes the weekend a net positive. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at the Round 1 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick84 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in No. 84 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at the 89th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick97 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They will replay Andrew Mukuba at pick 97 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick120 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in slot 120 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jack Bech
Taking Jack Bech in pick No. 126 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick138 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
A running back of that caliber at No. 138 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick154 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in pick No. 154 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick208 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout in the 208th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223 Rnd7 Max Brosmer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Max Brosmer in slot 223, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Steven Parker
A wild overpay on Steven Parker in Round 7, Pick 13, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jared Wilson in pick 242, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
