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

It is a puzzling start. The Steelers had quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots to solve and reached instead for Kingsley Suamataia, an offensive lineman, at the 56th overall pick. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Odunze value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

The Brade pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In slot 24 they get a weapon on the perimeter, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They liked Zach Frazier enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 51. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Kingsley Suamataia at offensive lineman with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at the 104th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beau Brade
They jumped the gun on Beau Brade, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick178 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A reach for Tahj Washington in the Round 6 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
