Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Sedrick Van Pran at the 63rd pick is 27 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Steelers indulged a want in Van Pran while a need in interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots stayed open. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick63 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A want over a need in the 63rd overall pick: Sedrick Van Pran adds an offensive lineman while interior defensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick72 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at slot 72 is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick120 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A conviction pick on Cedric Gray at pick 120 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121 Rnd4 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Value said wait; Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in No. 121 says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in Round 5, Pick 20 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick213 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
They paid a round early for Steele Chambers in pick 213, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215 Rnd6 Blake Watson
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Watson at pick No. 215, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick242 Rnd7 Mark Perry
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 7 slot with a little surplus value in Mark Perry. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
