Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Steelers checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Steelers would have aced it. Bam Martin-Scott at the Round 7 slot is 107 spots clear of where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Pierce at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tyleik Williams
In No. 30 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Jayden Higgins. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
They liked Jalen Milroe enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 19. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 DJ Giddens
A big swing on DJ Giddens at the 123rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick166 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
They barely believed it either: Hollin Pierce still on the board at pick No. 166. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Hancock in the 189th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick229 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They took Isaac TeSlaa at par in No. 229, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick232 Rnd7 Bam Martin-Scott
Bam Martin-Scott at slot 232 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick241 Rnd7 Warren Brinson
Warren Brinson at Round 7, Pick 25 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
