Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Jones: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Steelers were there to profit. Myles Jones, the No. 204 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 245. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They will need Anderson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 20 they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at Round 2, Pick 24 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick84 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They let Junior Colson come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick120 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They did well to land Ainias Smith in pick 120, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in slot 128 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick162 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in the 162nd overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze at the 174th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jalen Green
Jalen Green at pick No. 198 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick212 Rnd6 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at slot 212 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick241 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
A real head-scratcher, Evan Anderson in No. 241 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Myles Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Myles Jones reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
