Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Harvey fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somebody in the 225th overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while RJ Harvey, the No. 160 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 21st pick they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson is a better player than slot 52 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick83 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Steal is underselling it; Deone Walker at No. 83 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They barely believed it either: Andrew Mukuba still on the board at Round 4, Pick 21. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
A quarterback of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick225 Rnd7 RJ Harvey
Circle this one: RJ Harvey at pick No. 225 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
A quiet steal in pick 231: Cam Jackson for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick247 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Taking Kyle Williams in the 247th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
