Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B.

Somebody in the 123rd pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while Will Howard, the No. 101 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Every board in the league had Taylor lower, and that gap is the story. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 21 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick83 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Steal is underselling it; Donovan Jackson at No. 83 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick123 Rnd4 Will Howard
The board fumbled Will Howard all the way to the 123rd pick, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick156 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Damien Martinez. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 6 slot with a little surplus value in Quincy Riley. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
A real head-scratcher, Roc Taylor in No. 229 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
