Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesA- FutureC
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Steelers a B-.

The Logan Lee selection is the head-turner. The Steelers reached 34 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The Van Pran value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while quarterback, safety and other spots went begging.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 20th pick they get a true top target, though they paid up to get him.
Pick42 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A premium they did not need to pay, Payton Wilson a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick51 Rnd2 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in the Round 2 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
The board fumbled Sedrick Van Pran all the way to pick No. 98, and they scooped it up. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick119 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went offensive lineman with Roger Rosengarten while clear needs at quarterback, safety and other spots sat open.
Pick178 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A big swing on Logan Lee at No. 178, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
