Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers won the night they stopped Mills from sliding. Grade: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Steelers watched Rylie Mills slide 23 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The cost of the Skattebo reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector, though they paid up to get him.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
The board had cheaper options than Cam Skattebo at pick 83, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
They read the board right and Joshua Farmer was the payoff at slot 123. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick156 Rnd5 Rylie Mills
They barely believed it either: Rylie Mills still on the board at Round 5, Pick 18. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Que Robinson
A straight-up fair deal on Que Robinson at No. 185, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie in the 229th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
