Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let McCaffrey fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Luke McCaffrey, the 178th overall pick, roughly 29 picks past where he belonged.

Reaching for Eichenberg left real value on the table behind him. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 20 they get a long-term starter on the line. More want than need.
Pick51 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman is a better player than pick No. 51 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Value with a capital V on Mike Sainristil in No. 84, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Fair-plus on Khyree Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They talked themselves into Tommy Eichenberg at the 119th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick178 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Taking Luke McCaffrey in the 178th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick195 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A straight-up fair deal on Joe Milton III at slot 195, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
