FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Steelers a B. The trade table was a mismatch, and the Steelers were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
They will need Travis to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Steelers indulged a want in Frazier while a need in edge rusher, linebacker and other spots stayed open.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at the 33rd pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick49
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending Round 2, Pick 17 on Zach Frazier with edge rusher, linebacker and other spots unsolved.
Pick51
Rnd2
Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in the 51st overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick84
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick 84 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100
Rnd3
Leonard Taylor III
No edge and no loss on Leonard Taylor III in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick119
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
A reach for Johnny Wilson in slot 119; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick133
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
A wild overpay on Jordan Travis in No. 133, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
