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

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dwight McGlothern got past him. The Steelers do not have to explain a thing at Round 6, Pick 20. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Steelers indulged a want in Paul while a need in quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots stayed open. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 20th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
The board had cheaper options than Zach Frazier at Round 2, Pick 19, and it noticed. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick66 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A curious use of pick 66. Quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; an offensive lineman in Patrick Paul did not.
Pick98 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Good price on Khyree Jackson in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd6 Khristian Boyd
They took Khristian Boyd at par in slot 178, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick195 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the 195th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
