Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

The John Williams pick is the one that will follow the Steelers into the fall. They took him 37 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 21st overall pick they get a moveable chess piece at tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick83 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A reach for Savion Williams in the 83rd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick123 Rnd4 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez at pick 123 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick156 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
A wild overpay on Raheim Sanders in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick185 Rnd6 Clay Webb
A straight-up fair deal on Clay Webb at No. 185, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick229 Rnd7 John Williams
They reached a country mile for John Williams at slot 229, and the board is aghast. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
