Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B-.

Priorities are a choice, and the Steelers made a strange one, taking Matt Goncalves at offensive lineman in slot 120 with quarterback, edge rusher and other spots crying out for the pick instead.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Johnson.

If Frazier pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 20th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They paid a round early for Zach Frazier in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick84 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
No edge and no loss on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in pick 84; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick120 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
They bypassed pressing needs at quarterback, edge rusher and other spots to take Matt Goncalves, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick121 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
No drama and no debate, Tyler Davis went about where he belonged in the 121st pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick197 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
A quiet steal in the 197th overall pick: Cornelius Johnson for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick238 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace in pick No. 238 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
