Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Bullard should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a B-.

When a board-topper like Javon Bullard slides to the Round 3 slot, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Reaching for Gray left real value on the table behind him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 20 they get a ballhawk on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They paid sticker price for Xavier Worthy in Round 2, Pick 19, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at the 84th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
A conviction pick on Cedric Gray at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They took Blake Fisher at par in slot 119, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick178 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson at pick 178 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick195 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at No. 195 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
