Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureA+
The Steelers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Gabe Hall, 43 picks early at Round 6, Pick 3.

It is not that Paul is a bad player; it is that the Steelers had louder needs to answer first. That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. That Polk pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In pick 32 they get a building block for the line. More want than need.
Pick65 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Patrick Paul adds an offensive lineman and leaves safety and tight end untouched.
Pick84 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick No. 84 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
A tidy bit of business in the 88th pick, where Ja'Lynn Polk graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick108 Rnd4 Javon Foster
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 108 on Javon Foster with safety and tight end unsolved.
Pick119 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went offensive lineman with Zak Zinter while clear needs at safety and tight end sat open.
Pick120 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
A clean, defensible pick in No. 120 with a little surplus value in Spencer Rattler. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo slid further than he should have, and the 142nd overall pick is lovely value for the running back. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at slot 164 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick178 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at Round 6, Pick 3 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick195 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
A tidy little value on M.J. Devonshire in the 195th pick, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick211 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
They went early on JD Bertrand in pick 211, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick249 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means in the Round 7 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
