Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

Hard to follow the map here. The Steelers bypassed quarterback, edge rusher and other spots to take Sedrick Van Pran at pick No. 66, a spot they had covered. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The Johnson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 24 they get a blindside protector. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braden Fiske. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, edge rusher and other spots to take Sedrick Van Pran, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick84 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick 84 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick118 Rnd4 James Williams
They took James Williams at par in pick No. 118, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Cornelius Johnson a notch or two before his time. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
By-the-book stuff, Jared Wiley at No. 194 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick240 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at slot 240 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
