Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Steelers, and a B- to prove it.

Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Steelers to leave a draft.

Brade at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 20 they get a press-man option on the boundary. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at the 52nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Good price on Roman Wilson in the 84th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade slipping to pick 120 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick121 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
By-the-book stuff, Justin Eboigbe at Round 4, Pick 21 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick198 Rnd6 Marcellas Dial
Fair-plus on Marcellas Dial, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jase McClellan in pick No. 238. A need, and now a little less of one.
