Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers won the night they stopped Clark from sliding. Grade: B-.

Call it larceny. De'Corian Clark sat on the board until pick No. 238, and the Steelers did not need to be asked twice.

With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on offensive lineman is the choice that costs them. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for Frazier left real value on the table behind him.

Safety is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick52 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots to take Zach Frazier, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick84 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went DT-EDGE with Maason Smith while clear needs at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots sat open.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in No. 120 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick121 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in Round 4, Pick 21 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Proctor. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick238 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in pick 238 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
