Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB TradesA- FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Steelers for Benson: B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Malik Benson at slot 214 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

The Miller pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, running back and other spots. Reaching for Foster left real value on the table behind him.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 27th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Spencer Fano
Circle this one: Spencer Fano at slot 53 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
Kamari Ramsey at the 76th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Blake Miller
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, running back and other spots to take Blake Miller, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick99 Rnd3 Garrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier at No. 99 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Chase Bisontis
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Chase Bisontis adds an offensive lineman while edge rusher, running back and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
You do not let a linebacker like Jacob Rodriguez reach Round 4, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Darrell Jackson Jr.
The board fumbled Darrell Jackson Jr. all the way to pick No. 159, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick213 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at pick 213 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick214 Rnd6 Malik Benson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Malik Benson in slot 214, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick224 Rnd7 Ephesians Prysock
Taking Ephesians Prysock in pick No. 224 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick237 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bryce Foster in No. 237, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
