Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureA
The Steelers checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Nobody else had Will Sheppard anywhere near the 247th overall pick. The Steelers did, by 107 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The Tuten steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The Devin Bush pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They paid sticker price for Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at Round 3, Pick 3 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Savion Williams
A reach for Savion Williams in pick No. 83; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick103 Rnd4 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick 103 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick122 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
They will replay Malachi Moore at No. 122 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick163 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
They did well to land Raheim Sanders in the 163rd pick, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick194 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at No. 194 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
They left a pile of value on the table to take Xavier Truss this early at slot 225. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Circle this one: Jordan Hancock at pick 231 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick247 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
A wild overpay on Will Sheppard in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
