Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Lambert-Smith fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like KeAndre Lambert-Smith slides to pick No. 231, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not.

If Hemingway pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In pick No. 21 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
They paid sticker price for TreVeyon Henderson in slot 52, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick83 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the 83rd pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
They barely believed it either: Jalen Milroe still on the board at the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick163 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in No. 163 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A wild overpay on Tonka Hemingway in the 225th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick231 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They will replay KeAndre Lambert-Smith at Round 7, Pick 13 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick247 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
You do not let a running back like Trevor Etienne reach pick 247 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
