Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Melton should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a A-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Max Melton, the No. 111 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 155. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The Van Pran pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots still on the board. If Van Pran pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

In the end it comes back to Quinyon Mitchell, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick40 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell slid further than he should have, and pick No. 40 is lovely value for the cornerback. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick65 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at slot 65 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick67 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
They read the board right and Edgerrin Cooper was the payoff at pick 67. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Sedrick Van Pran at offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick90 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in No. 90 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
Circle this one: Mike Sainristil at the 102nd pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick104 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 104th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick106 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson slipping to the 120th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent No. 121 on Javon Foster, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick133 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 133, where Kris Abrams-Draine graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick137 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
They let Tommy Eichenberg come to them and pounced at the 137th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick155 Rnd5 Max Melton
Taking Max Melton in slot 155 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Nothing to complain about; Michael Barrett went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A quarterback of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Javon Baker
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Javon Baker in Round 7, Pick 4, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
They robbed the room for Jase McClellan here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
They barely believed it either: Daequan Hardy still on the board at the 256th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
