Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 142: the Steelers steal Emmanwori and grade out a B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Steelers, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Emmanwori. The veteran additions, Drue Tranquill chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tacario Davis
In slot 20 they get a ballhawk on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
No edge and no loss on Tyleik Williams in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton in Round 2, Pick 17 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78 Rnd3 Tre Harris
They let Tre Harris come to them and pounced at the 78th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at pick No. 96 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick98 Rnd4 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at No. 98 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick142 Rnd5 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 14 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
A clean, defensible pick in the 184th overall pick with a little surplus value in Jake Briningstool. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick196 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Kiser at the 196th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick206 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
Fair-plus on Xavier Truss, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
