Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Jalen Rivers; the Steelers did not wait, grabbing him 102 spots ahead at Round 7, Pick 15.

Hampton falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 21 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end at fair value.
Pick52 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in slot 52 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick83 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the 83rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
The board had Smael Mondon Jr. higher than the 122nd pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at pick No. 163 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Value said wait; Thor Griffith in pick 225 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jalen Rivers
Jalen Rivers at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick247 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
This one needs a full-page explanation: Will Sheppard in No. 247, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
