Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Steelers would have aced it. Khristian Boyd at pick 119 is 59 spots clear of where he belonged.

The safety hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the 20th overall pick they get an island corner at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in pick No. 51 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
A big swing on Blake Fisher at No. 84, well ahead of any board in the building. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick98 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 98 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
This one needs a full-page explanation: Khristian Boyd in the 119th pick, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick178 Rnd6 Jordan Travis
A clean, defensible pick in slot 178 with a little surplus value in Jordan Travis. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick195 Rnd6 Logan Lee
Logan Lee in the 195th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
