Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

The tape said wait; the Steelers did not. Logan Lee went at Round 6, Pick 20, a good 48 picks before the board was ready.

The Rosengarten pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, safety and other spots. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 20 they get a lockdown presence outside. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
By-the-book stuff, Zach Frazier at Round 2, Pick 19 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Roger Rosengarten
A surprising call. With quarterback, safety and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 84 on Roger Rosengarten, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick98 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Value said wait; Brenden Rice in the 98th pick says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke McCaffrey in slot 119, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick178 Rnd6 James Williams
James Williams in the 178th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick195 Rnd6 Logan Lee
A real head-scratcher, Logan Lee in No. 195 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
