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

You build a draft on nights like this. Kamari Ramsey had no business being available in the 121st overall pick, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Every board in the league had Orange lower, and that gap is the story.

The Steelers indulged a want in Davis while a need in edge rusher, running back and other spots stayed open.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value.
Pick53 Rnd2 Domonique Orange
A big swing on Domonique Orange at pick No. 53, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis in slot 76 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick85 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
A conviction pick on Ja'Kobi Lane at the 85th pick that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick99 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott at pick 99 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Kamari Ramsey
Kamari Ramsey in the 121st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, J.C. Davis adds an offensive lineman and leaves edge rusher, running back and other spots untouched.
Pick161 Rnd5 Drew Allar
A tidy little value on Drew Allar in Round 5, Pick 21, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Aiden Fisher
A premium they did not need to pay, Aiden Fisher a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kendrick Law
The board fumbled Kendrick Law all the way to pick No. 224, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick230 Rnd7 Jeremiah Wright
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jeremiah Wright at pick 230 is the proof. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick237 Rnd7 TJ Hall
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TJ Hall in the 237th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
