Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Logan Lee; the Steelers did not wait, grabbing him 65 spots ahead at pick No. 178.

That Wilson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. With quarterback, safety and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on offensive lineman is the choice that costs them.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 20 they get a building block for the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Mike Sainristil
They paid sticker price for Mike Sainristil in slot 51, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick84 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in Round 3, Pick 20 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Hunter Nourzad
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Hunter Nourzad in the 98th pick leaves quarterback, safety and other spots for later.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the 119th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick178 Rnd6 Logan Lee
They reached a country mile for Logan Lee at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick195 Rnd6 Dillon Johnson
They reached into another round for Dillon Johnson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
