Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Steelers: C+. The Steelers clearly saw something nobody else did in Garrett Nussmeier, taking him 38 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The final tally is a middling C+.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Rivers value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
KC Concepcion
In pick No. 21 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Garrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier in the 37th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76
Rnd3
Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at No. 76 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick99
Rnd3
Chandler Rivers
A slide stopped in the 99th overall pick, with Chandler Rivers worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
