Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Henderson should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a D.

The phones were a trap the Steelers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

Pegues has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Getting Henderson where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in pick 23 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick38 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Nice patience on Derrick Harmon, who had no business lasting to the 38th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick45 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Taking Walter Nolen in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick83 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 83 is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Savion Williams
No edge and no loss on Savion Williams in Round 3, Pick 23; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Shough this early at No. 123. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick156 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A wild overpay on JJ Pegues in No. 156, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in pick No. 185 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick229 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
By-the-book stuff, Isaac TeSlaa at Round 7, Pick 13 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
