FutureA-
Sellers is the plan now, and the Steelers grade out a B. The Steelers clearly saw something nobody else did in Jaleel Skinner, taking him 148 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The bottom line is a respectable B.
The whole projection now runs through LaNorris Sellers; hit there and everything else looks smarter. Getting Harbor where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
LaNorris Sellers
In pick No. 24 they get the face of the franchise, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57
Rnd2
Nyck Harbor
Circle this one: Nyck Harbor at the 57th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick73
Rnd3
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at Round 3, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick83
Rnd3
Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore in the 83rd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88
Rnd3
Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb at slot 88 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick98
Rnd3
Malachi Fields
Nice patience on Malachi Fields, who had no business lasting to pick 98. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. slipping to slot 109 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick114
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Domani Jackson graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick119
Rnd4
Charles Jagusah
They read the board right and Charles Jagusah was the payoff at pick 119. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick125
Rnd4
Kage Casey
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Kage Casey at offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman open.
Pick133
Rnd4
Jonah Coleman
A conviction pick on Jonah Coleman at Round 4, Pick 31 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick148
Rnd5
Taylen Green
A straight-up fair deal on Taylen Green at the 148th pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick153
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Davison Igbinosun in No. 153. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick176
Rnd5
Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at the 176th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick177
Rnd6
Barion Brown
They paid sticker price for Barion Brown in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick192
Rnd6
J.Michael Sturdivant
No drama and no debate, J.Michael Sturdivant went about where he belonged in No. 192. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick211
Rnd6
Hykeem Williams
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Hykeem Williams at slot 211 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227
Rnd7
Jaleel Skinner
Jaleel Skinner at pick No. 227 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250
Rnd7
Reggie Grimes II
They talked themselves into Reggie Grimes II at the 250th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
