Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

The tape said wait; the Steelers did not. Jaylin Smith went at slot 229, a good 33 picks before the board was ready.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Bryant value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Their trades came out a wash either way.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In the 31st pick they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in the Round 3 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A reach for Cam Skattebo in pick 83; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123 Rnd4 Logan Brown
Logan Brown at Round 4, Pick 21 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick156 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A slide stopped in pick No. 156, with Pat Bryant worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at slot 185 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Value said wait; Jaylin Smith in slot 229 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
