Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Steelers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

The Steelers did not so much draft Roman Hemby as overpay for him, 69 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Styles pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In No. 26 they get a matchup problem out wide, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
The board had Sonny Styles higher than the 53rd pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick85 Rnd3 Carson Beck
Fair-plus on Carson Beck, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92 Rnd3 Caden Curry
A conviction pick on Caden Curry at Round 3, Pick 28 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
Chandler Rivers at pick 99 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
The board had cheaper options than Jakobe Thomas at slot 121, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick133 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss slid further than he should have, and the 133rd pick is lovely value for the quarterback. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Nice patience on Michael Trigg, who had no business lasting to the 136th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts in slot 160 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick213 Rnd6 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby at pick 213 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick214 Rnd6 Dominic Zvada
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dominic Zvada. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick224 Rnd7 London Humphreys
This one needs a full-page explanation: London Humphreys in Round 7, Pick 8, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick237 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
A big swing on Da'Shawn Womack at pick No. 237, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
