Grand theft in pick 83: the Steelers steal Collins and grade out a B.

When a board-topper like Alfred Collins slides to No. 83, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not.

A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In No. 21 they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
They read the board right and Kaleb Johnson was the payoff at the 52nd pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Circle this one: Alfred Collins at slot 83 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Will Howard
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Will Howard at pick 122. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
