Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Steelers for Moore: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Rod Moore tumbling to the Steelers in No. 120 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Job largely done: safety settled and 3 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at the 21st overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It fills a real need, too.
Pick53 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in slot 53 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick 85 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at pick No. 120 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the 121st pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
