800k3m DRAFTING FOR THESteelers

The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Restrepo: B-. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Xavier Restrepo, the 244th overall pick, roughly 20 picks past where he belonged. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Reaching for Limmer left real value on the table behind him. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
A clean, defensible pick in the 23rd pick with a little surplus value in Cooper DeJean. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick55
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
A straight-up fair deal on T'Vondre Sweat at No. 55, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the 87th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in slot 122 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick201
Rnd6
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at pick No. 201 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick244
Rnd7
Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo in Round 7, Pick 24 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
