Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Steelers kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The curious call sets the tone. With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots still glaring, the Steelers used slot 88 on Matt Goncalves, an offensive lineman they were not exactly short of. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They banked enough surplus on Green to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Goncalves pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Job largely done: safety settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In the Round 1 slot they get a press-man option on the boundary. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
No drama and no debate, Zach Frazier went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 25. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick84 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
No edge and no loss on Marist Liufau in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick88 Rnd3 Matt Goncalves
A surprising call. With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent the 88th overall pick on Matt Goncalves, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick120 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Robinson. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in pick 121 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick198 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Barrett at No. 198 is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jalen Green
Nice patience on Jalen Green, who had no business lasting to pick No. 238. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
