Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueD+ NeedB TradesC FutureA
A solid, sensible weekend for the Steelers: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Steelers shredded theirs for Xavier Truss. He came off 141 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Tuten. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Alfred Collins. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
This one needs a full-page explanation: Maxwell Hairston in the Round 2 slot, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
They will replay Jalen Royals at Round 3, Pick 19 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at the 122nd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss at slot 163 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick164 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders slipping to pick 164 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick225 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
A real head-scratcher, Will Sheppard in Round 7, Pick 7 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at pick 231 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick247 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in slot 247 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
