Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Royals should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a B.

The Steelers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jalen Royals, the No. 63 name on the board, in Round 4, Pick 1. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They will need Hamilton to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In slot 29 they get a wrecking ball inside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick80 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
They paid sticker price for Jalen Milroe in Round 3, Pick 27, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jalen Royals
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 103 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick129 Rnd4 Logan Brown
A premium they did not need to pay, Logan Brown a notch or two before his time. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick136 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in pick 136 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick141 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Somehow Anthony Belton was still sitting there in pick No. 141, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick156 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kalel Mullings. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
A real head-scratcher, Ty Hamilton in Round 7, Pick 13 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
