Draft Grade — Steelers

Grand theft in Round 6, Pick 9: the Steelers steal Leonard and grade out a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Riley Leonard, the No. 127 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 185. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The Higgins reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In pick No. 21 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Jack Bech slipping to No. 83 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
They will replay Ozzy Trapilo at pick 123 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick156 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
They reached a country mile for Jay Higgins at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at Round 6, Pick 9 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. at the 229th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
