Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB FutureC
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Collins: B-.

Somebody in the 83rd overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while Alfred Collins, the No. 55 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had Taylor lower, and that gap is the story.

Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 21 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick83 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They robbed the room for Alfred Collins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick84 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Value with a capital V on Maxwell Hairston in slot 84, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick123 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 123 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick156 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 185th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick229 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
They talked themselves into Roc Taylor at Round 7, Pick 13, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
