Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Steelers for Sainristil: B.

Call it larceny. Mike Sainristil sat on the board until the Round 6 slot, and the Steelers did not need to be asked twice. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Reaching for Nelson left real value on the table behind him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots went begging.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 24 they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A conviction pick on Sedrick Van Pran at the 55th pick that the board grades a round light. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in the Round 3 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Blake Fisher adds an offensive lineman and leaves interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots untouched.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Jamon Dumas-Johnson at slot 132, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in pick No. 138 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick180 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
They did well to land Miyan Williams in the 180th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick193 Rnd6 Mike Sainristil
They will replay Mike Sainristil at Round 6, Pick 18 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick201 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in the 201st pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225 Rnd7 Zion Nelson
A real head-scratcher, Zion Nelson in Round 7, Pick 5 is miles ahead of his ranking. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jalen Milroe
A big swing on Jalen Milroe at pick 240, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick244 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They paid up for LaDarius Henderson at the Round 7 slot when waiting would have done the job. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
