Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Baker fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Javon Baker tumbling to the Steelers in the 242nd pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

They will need Randolph Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 21st overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick53 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A reach on Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 53; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in the 85th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at pick 120 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick121 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at slot 121 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
Pick199 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
No edge and no loss on Josh Proctor in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Javon Baker
They will replay Javon Baker at No. 242 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
