Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureA
The Steelers kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Some picks age like wine; Will Sheppard at slot 231 will need to, sitting 123 spots clear of his grade.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Winston Jr. falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They took Alfred Collins at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals in the 67th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
They paid sticker price for Denzel Burke in the 83rd pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ozzy Trapilo at pick 103 is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick122 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
You do not let a safety like Kevin Winston Jr. reach Round 4, Pick 21 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in pick No. 163 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at pick 194 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick225 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss at No. 225 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick231 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
Will Sheppard at pick No. 231 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick247 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A wild overpay on Thor Griffith in the 247th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
