Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Tuten: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Bhayshul Tuten, slot 225, roughly 74 picks past where he belonged.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 21 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Quinshon Judkins for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Taking Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 122 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough in pick 163 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Steal is underselling it; Bhayshul Tuten at Round 7, Pick 7 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton at slot 231 is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. in the 247th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
