The Travis Burke selection is the head-turner. The Steelers reached 69 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The Wright pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · Olaivavega Ioane · OG · rank 21
In slot 21 they get a long-term starter on the line. Need was not the driver here.
R2.21 · Pick 53 · CJ Allen · LB · rank 31
Somehow CJ Allen was still sitting there in No. 53, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Lee Hunter · DT · rank 48
Lee Hunter in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Skyler Bell · WR · rank 84
They took Skyler Bell at par in pick No. 85, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.35 · Pick 99 · Bryce Lance · WR · rank 91
They read the board right and Bryce Lance was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 35. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R4.21 · Pick 121 · Treydan Stukes · CB · rank 96
Treydan Stukes at the 121st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.35 · Pick 135 · Oscar Delp · TE · rank 132
Oscar Delp at slot 135 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
R5.21 · Pick 161 · Drew Allar · QB · rank 156
A reasonable price with a little left over, Drew Allar in No. 161. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R6.35 · Pick 216 · Dae'Quan Wright · TE · rank 186
They will replay Dae'Quan Wright at the 216th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.8 · Pick 224 · Aiden Fisher · LB · rank 230
Aiden Fisher in the 224th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R7.14 · Pick 230 · Eli Heidenreich · WR · rank 240
A premium they did not need to pay, Eli Heidenreich a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
R7.21 · Pick 237 · Travis Burke · OT · rank 306
Travis Burke at pick No. 237 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
