Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers robbed the room for Stutsman. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Danny Stutsman had no business being available in pick 161, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

Every board in the league had Truss lower, and that gap is the story. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 21st overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Zy Alexander
No edge and no loss on Zy Alexander in the 52nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
The board fumbled Alfred Collins all the way to No. 83, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
They will replay TreVeyon Henderson at pick 121 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick161 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
They barely believed it either: Danny Stutsman still on the board at pick No. 161. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss in slot 223 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
They reached into another round for Kaden Prather, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in Round 7, Pick 29 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
