A costly weekend of dealing drags the Steelers to a C. The Steelers bet big and early on Donovan Smith, 99 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Hit on Savion Williams and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick122
Rnd4
Savion Williams
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 122 is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick123
Rnd4
JJ Pegues
Value said wait; JJ Pegues in pick 123 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick156
Rnd5
Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Ollie Gordon II
The board had Ollie Gordon II higher than the 185th pick, and the running back fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
