Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Steelers left with their quarterback, and a B+ to match.

The search is over. The Steelers handed the keys to Bo Nix, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The cost of the Robinson reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

The McCaffrey steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while interior defensive lineman and tight end went begging.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze is a better player than the Round 1 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick26 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick 26 they get their guy under center for the next decade. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing T.J. Tampa in Round 2, Pick 24. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick58 Rnd2 Graham Barton
A tidy bit of business in the 58th overall pick, where Graham Barton graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick84 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
A real head-scratcher, Darius Robinson in No. 84 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Nice patience on Blake Corum, who had no business lasting to pick No. 85. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 119 on Beaux Limmer with interior defensive lineman and tight end unsolved.
Pick120 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
The board had Jaden Hicks higher than the 120th pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick164 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Luke McCaffrey in No. 164, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
They jumped the gun on Sam Hartman, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick241 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers slipping to pick 241 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
