Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Steelers let Trapilo fall into their laps, and walked away with a D+.

The phones were a trap the Steelers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. It grades a D+, and the process earned it.

The cost of the Shough reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Trapilo.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 32 they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jack Bech
No edge and no loss on Jack Bech in No. 64; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins is a better player than pick 74 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick83 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Value with a capital V on Maxwell Hairston in the 83rd pick, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at pick No. 111 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick114 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Zy Alexander in the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Ozzy Trapilo in the 123rd pick, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick185 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Fair-plus on Connor Colby, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks in the 229th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
