FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Bassa: D. The phones were a trap the Steelers kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They are betting Collins proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The Bassa pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In the 30th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick42
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
They liked Alfred Collins enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 42. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick52
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in slot 52 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at Round 2, Pick 24 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
They let Quinshon Judkins come to them and pounced at the 83rd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jalen Milroe
You do not let a quarterback like Jalen Milroe reach pick 122 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
The board had Pat Bryant higher than No. 150, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163
Rnd5
Jeffrey Bassa
Circle this one: Jeffrey Bassa at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick170
Rnd5
Logan Brown
Logan Brown at Round 5, Pick 31 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick172
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in the 172nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in pick No. 174 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick190
Rnd6
Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at pick 190 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick211
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
Steal is underselling it; Oronde Gadsden II at slot 211 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Taking Jordan Hancock in the 225th overall pick 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.
Pick231
Rnd7
Chimere Dike
The board fumbled Chimere Dike all the way to slot 231, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247
Rnd7
Donovan Smith
A tidy little value on Donovan Smith in the 247th pick, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
