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

The Steelers went off the board in a big way for Jimmy Horn Jr., 103 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

Getting Skattebo where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
Nice patience on Tetairoa McMillan, who had no business lasting to pick No. 21. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick52 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 52nd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick84 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston slid further than he should have, and pick 84 is lovely value for the cornerback. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Charles Grant
They barely believed it either: Charles Grant still on the board at the Round 4 slot. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick158 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at Round 5, Pick 19 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick163 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They went early on JJ Pegues in the 163rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
No edge and no loss on Jabbar Muhammad in the 225th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Jimmy Horn Jr. in the 231st pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brady Cook
They talked themselves into Brady Cook at slot 247, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
