A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Steelers took Solomon Tuliaupupu at Round 7, Pick 20, roughly 76 spots before his name belonged.

The Klare steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 9 of 9 of the wish list covered. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

The dealing was even money, start to finish.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
Carnell Tate at pick No. 20 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It fills a real need, too.
Pick51 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at pick 51 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick79 Rnd3 Max Klare
Max Klare in the 79th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
A real head-scratcher, Chase Bisontis in Round 3, Pick 20 is miles ahead of his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick99 Rnd3 Cade Klubnik
Cade Klubnik at the 99th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick119 Rnd4 Blake Miller
Blake Miller in slot 119 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick133 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They reached into another round for DeMonte Capehart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick160 Rnd5 Josh Moten
Josh Moten at the 160th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick213 Rnd6 Rasheem Biles
Rasheem Biles at No. 213 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jahiem White
They liked Jahiem White enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 6, Pick 34. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd7 De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling in pick No. 219 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick235 Rnd7 Solomon Tuliaupupu
Solomon Tuliaupupu in pick 235 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 TJ Metcalf
A swing that ignored the value entirely, TJ Metcalf well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
