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

The Steelers put a flag in the ground for Vernon Broughton, 30 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Steelers indulged a want in Trapilo while a need in safety, edge rusher and other spots stayed open. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. They banked enough surplus on Williams to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in slot 79 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick83 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Quinshon Judkins in pick 83. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick91 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They bypassed pressing needs at safety, edge rusher and other spots to take Ozzy Trapilo, an offensive lineman that was not the priority.
Pick111 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in pick No. 111 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips slipping to the 123rd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick136 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
O'Donnell Fortune at No. 136 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick156 Rnd5 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at slot 156 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
A clean, defensible pick in pick 163 with a little surplus value in Damien Martinez. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in the 185th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
They reached a country mile for Roc Taylor at pick No. 229, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick243 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
They reached into another round for Donovan Smith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
