The curious call sets the tone. With quarterback, edge rusher and other spots still glaring, the Steelers used Round 3, Pick 9 on Sedrick Van Pran, an offensive lineman they were not exactly short of. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Every board in the league had Brade lower, and that gap is the story.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Mitchell. On the needs board they went 4 of 9, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

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