Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Steelers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Joe Milton III; the Steelers did not wait, grabbing him 79 spots ahead at the Round 5 slot. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

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

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 20 they get a press-man option on the boundary. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
No drama and no debate, Zach Frazier went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 19. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick84 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at the 84th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in slot 103 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick119 Rnd4 Caedan Wallace
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Caedan Wallace at offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots open.
Pick137 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 137 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick178 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at the 178th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick195 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
They reached into another round for Tyrice Knight, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
