Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedC+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

The Steele Chambers selection is the head-turner. The Steelers reached 33 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Powers-Johnson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots.

Brade at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Safety was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
No edge and no loss on Amarius Mims in No. 20; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jackson Powers-Johnson at offensive lineman with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick84 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Roman Wilson at slot 84 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade slipping to Round 4, Pick 19 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick198 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at the 198th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
They did well to land Trevor Keegan in Round 7, Pick 21, just ahead of his grade. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
