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

The Steelers clearly saw something nobody else did in Edefuan Ulofoshio, taking him 58 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The trade work was a quiet net positive. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Kamari Lassiter
In the 32nd overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They paid up for Zach Frazier at the 51st pick when waiting would have done the job. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick64 Rnd2 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at pick 64 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick84 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A big swing on Maason Smith at the Round 3 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95 Rnd3 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at slot 95 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at pick No. 98 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at Round 4, Pick 19 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse at the 159th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick178 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in pick 195 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
