Good, not great, for the Steelers: B-. The war room fell hard for Carson Beck, and it showed at slot 53: 54 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
The Bernard value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Monroe Freeling
In slot 21 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. More want than need.
Pick53
Rnd2
Carson Beck
Carson Beck at the 53rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick76
Rnd3
Germie Bernard
Value with a capital V on Germie Bernard in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
A tidy little value on Jacob Rodriguez in No. 85, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick99
Rnd3
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the 99th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick121
Rnd4
Jack Endries
They let Jack Endries come to them and pounced at pick 121. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135
Rnd4
Bud Clark
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bud Clark at slot 135 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick159
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
Good price on Domani Jackson in No. 159, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick213
Rnd6
Jeremiah Wright
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jeremiah Wright. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick214
Rnd6
Miller Moss
The board had cheaper options than Miller Moss at pick No. 214, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224
Rnd7
Connor Tollison
Connor Tollison in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick237
Rnd7
Owen Heinecke
A reach for Owen Heinecke in Round 7, Pick 21; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
