Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Steelers.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Steelers reached some 66 spots for Xavier Truss, and value like that does not grow back.

The Williams value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get an anchor for the defensive front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at the 83rd pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick123 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Somehow Savion Williams was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick156 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 156 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 John Williams
Value said wait; John Williams in pick 185 says they were not listening. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick229 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
They reached a country mile for Xavier Truss at pick No. 229, and the board is aghast. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
