Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers kept it disciplined and banked a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jordan Hancock at No. 229 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

If Sanders pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 21st overall pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
You do not let a running back like Quinshon Judkins reach Round 3, Pick 19 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick123 Rnd4 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at slot 123 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick162 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tommi Hill in No. 162. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick223 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
No drama and no debate, Cam Jackson went about where he belonged in pick No. 223. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the 229th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
A big swing on Shilo Sanders at the 245th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
