Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Steelers.

The Steelers went off the board in a big way for Theo Wease Jr., 40 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Landing Beck that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a disruptive interior force, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 Carson Beck
They robbed the room for Carson Beck here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Theo Wease Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Theo Wease Jr.. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick128 Rnd4 Donovan Edwards
A premium they did not need to pay, Donovan Edwards a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick143 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at No. 143 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jared Ivey
A big swing on Jared Ivey at slot 163, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick223 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Somehow Garrett Dellinger was still sitting there in pick 223, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
A slide stopped in Round 7, Pick 15, with Kyren Lacy worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. in slot 240 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
