Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Trotter Jr.: B-.

When a board-topper like Jeremiah Trotter Jr. slides to the Round 3 slot, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots went begging. The Rosengarten pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A reach on Zach Frazier in slot 51; the board had better options right there. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at pick 84 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Jeremiah Trotter Jr. reach Round 3, Pick 35 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick119 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
A surprising call. With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 119 on Roger Rosengarten, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
