Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is John Williams at Round 7, Pick 13. The Steelers jumped the board by 37 and dared it to prove them wrong. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

That Lundt pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 21 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick83 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez in No. 123 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick156 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 156th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at pick 185 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick229 Rnd7 John Williams
They left a pile of value on the table to take John Williams this early at the 229th overall pick. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
