Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Steelers walked right past.

Gore Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes. Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In slot 20 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
A clean, defensible pick in the 51st overall pick with a little surplus value in Roman Wilson. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in the 84th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick118 Rnd4 James Williams
A straight-up fair deal on James Williams at pick No. 118, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Davis at pick 119 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick201 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cornelius Johnson in Round 6, Pick 26. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
Nothing to complain about; Tyrice Knight went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick240 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They read the board right and Frank Gore Jr. was the payoff at No. 240. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in No. 245 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255 Rnd7 Bub Means
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bub Means. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
