Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick 229 lands the Steelers a B-, Strong and all.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Dorian Strong fell into slot 229. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They will need James to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In No. 21 they get a long-term starter on the line. More want than need.
Pick83 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A reach on Savion Williams in pick 83; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Taking Jalen Milroe in Round 4, Pick 21 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick162 Rnd5 Shemar James
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shemar James well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Corey Kiner
Corey Kiner at slot 223 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick229 Rnd7 Dorian Strong
They barely believed it either: Dorian Strong still on the board at pick No. 229. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ben Yurosek
Ben Yurosek at the 245th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
