Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Steelers: C.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Curtis Jacobs; the Steelers did not wait, grabbing him 146 spots ahead at No. 51. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Harden. The safety hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with safety, edge rusher and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at the 20th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick51 Rnd2 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs in slot 51 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick84 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A quiet steal in pick 84: Patrick Paul for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at the Round 3 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick119 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A surprising call. With safety, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent the 119th overall pick on Javion Cohen, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick178 Rnd6 Austin Reed
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Austin Reed well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick205 Rnd6 David Ugwoegbu
David Ugwoegbu at slot 205 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick249 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden at pick 249 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
