Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Farmer fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Joshua Farmer had no business being available in Round 6, Pick 9, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. Skattebo has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 21 they get a load in the middle at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A premium they did not need to pay, Cam Skattebo a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick156 Rnd5 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in Round 5, Pick 18 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 Joshua Farmer
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at slot 185 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick229 Rnd7 Chase Lundt
They robbed the room for Chase Lundt here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
