FutureB+
The Steelers got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-. Nobody else had Jordan Whittington anywhere near slot 241. The Steelers did, by 30 spots, and that gap is the whole story. The final tally is a middling C-.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
So much rides on Amarius Mims that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Amarius Mims
In the 25th pick they get a building block for the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick54
Rnd2
T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick56
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
No edge and no loss on Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 56; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88
Rnd3
Junior Colson
Junior Colson in pick 88 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119
Rnd4
James Williams
James Williams in slot 119 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
A reach for Jordan Travis in No. 120; a little patience would have been rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick128
Rnd4
Cam Hart
They jumped the gun on Cam Hart, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Nice patience on Josh Proctor, who had no business lasting to the Round 6 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jordan Whittington
They reached a country mile for Jordan Whittington at pick 241, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
