Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC
Nobody dealt better than the Steelers this weekend: B.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Steelers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Brade at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. If Franklin pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In slot 20 they get a sticky cover corner. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in Round 3, Pick 25 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick120 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick121 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Beau Brade at the 121st pick is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
A straight-up fair deal on Tommy Eichenberg at No. 126, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
Marcellas Dial at pick No. 198 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones slipping to the 216th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick238 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
They paid a round early for Zakhari Franklin in pick 238, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
