Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The Steelers bet the future on Dart. The board says B+.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cody Simon fell into Round 7, Pick 13.

The whole projection now runs through Jaxson Dart; hit there and everything else looks smarter. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Alexander proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in No. 30 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Quinshon Judkins
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinshon Judkins. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick83 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at the 83rd overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Tai Felton at pick No. 123 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick156 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
They robbed the room for Malachi Moore here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson slid further than he should have, and the 185th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick206 Rnd6 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in the Round 6 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick229 Rnd7 Cody Simon
You do not let a linebacker like Cody Simon reach Round 7, Pick 13 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
