Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers robbed the room for Allar. Final grade: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Drew Allar, the No. 109 name on the board, stolen at the 164th overall pick. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Jones pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman and edge rusher still on the board.

Reaching for Kearney left real value on the table behind him.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Gennings Dunker
In the 25th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. More want than need.
Pick58 Rnd2 Cade Klubnik
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cade Klubnik in No. 58. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Antonio Williams
A quiet steal in pick 79: Antonio Williams for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick89 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
They went early on Harold Perkins Jr. in slot 89, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick99 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
Circle this one: Michael Taaffe at the 99th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Eugene Wilson III
No edge and no loss on Eugene Wilson III in Round 4, Pick 26; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134 Rnd4 Logan Jones
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Logan Jones at offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman and edge rusher open.
Pick164 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Somehow Drew Allar was still sitting there in pick No. 164, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Darius Taylor
Darius Taylor at pick No. 172 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209 Rnd6 Roderick Kearney
A big swing on Roderick Kearney at No. 209, well ahead of any board in the building. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jerry Wilson
Jerry Wilson at slot 217 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick243 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
They paid sticker price for Brett Norfleet in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
