Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB
Larceny in pick No. 85 lands the Steelers a B-, Manning and all.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Arch Manning fell into pick No. 85. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Bowry reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
Makai Lemon slipping to the 25th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58 Rnd2 Daylen Everette
A reasonable price with a little left over, Daylen Everette in slot 58. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jude Bowry
Jude Bowry at pick No. 84 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick85 Rnd3 Arch Manning
Circle this one: Arch Manning at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
They took Bray Hubbard at par in the 126th pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis in pick 134 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick164 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
A tidy bit of business in No. 164, where Tanner Koziol graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart at Round 5, Pick 33 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jackson Arnold
Jackson Arnold in the 209th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at pick 217 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick220 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nolan Rucci. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jerry Wilson
A slide stopped in slot 243, with Jerry Wilson worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
