Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers bet the future on Klubnik. The board says B.

The search is over. The Steelers handed the keys to Cade Klubnik, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Reaching for Mills left real value on the table behind him.

They went 8 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Cade Klubnik
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a long-term answer under center. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Suntarine Perkins
Suntarine Perkins at pick No. 46 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick78 Rnd3 DeAndre Moore Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the 78th pick, where DeAndre Moore Jr. graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick98 Rnd3 Amare Campbell
They did well to land Amare Campbell in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick114 Rnd4 Monroe Mills
They talked themselves into Monroe Mills at slot 114, and the board did not agree. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick133 Rnd4 Luke Hasz
Good price on Luke Hasz in the 133rd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick153 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
Isaac Smith at pick 153 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick176 Rnd5 Mark Fletcher Jr.
They robbed the room for Mark Fletcher Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Brandon Inniss
A reasonable price with a little left over, Brandon Inniss in the Round 6 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick211 Rnd6 Malachi Nelson
A quarterback of that caliber at pick 211 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jacobe Johnson
Jacobe Johnson slid further than he should have, and No. 227 is lovely value for the cornerback. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
