Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall A
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Jackson: A.

Somebody in the 247th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while Ja'Quinden Jackson, the No. 166 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A.

The cost of the Lachey reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 24th overall pick they get a three-down runner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick52 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
The board had T.J. Sanders higher than pick No. 52, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jermari Harris
They paid sticker price for Jermari Harris in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Savion Williams
They robbed the room for Savion Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
They reached a country mile for Luke Lachey at pick 134, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in Round 5, Pick 10 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick163 Rnd5 Will Howard
You do not let a quarterback like Will Howard reach the 163rd pick and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick198 Rnd6 Connor Colby
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Connor Colby in No. 198. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jaylen Reed in No. 225, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229 Rnd7 Cobee Bryant
Taking Cobee Bryant in the 229th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
They barely believed it either: Ja'Quinden Jackson still on the board at Round 7, Pick 29. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
