Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Steelers a B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Steelers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

On value alone, Coleman makes the weekend a net positive. The Fisher pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots still on the board.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Every board in the league had Eichenberg lower, and that gap is the story.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
They talked themselves into Sedrick Van Pran at pick No. 57, and the board did not agree. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick60 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 60th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Blake Fisher adds an offensive lineman and leaves interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots untouched.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at No. 118 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
They robbed the room for Jalen McMillan here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They read the board right and Tykee Smith was the payoff at the 160th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in pick 170 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick194 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 194th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick240 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A slide stopped in the Round 7 slot, with Frank Gore Jr. worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
