Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Mondon Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Smael Mondon Jr. slides to the 223rd pick, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They will need Rivers to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a disruptive interior force, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick52 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden at the 52nd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
This one needs a full-page explanation: Azareye'h Thomas in slot 83, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
They robbed the room for Quinshon Judkins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 161 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at the 223rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jalen Rivers
A real head-scratcher, Jalen Rivers in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick245 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at No. 245 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
