Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall C
ValueF NeedB TradesC+ FutureA
The Steelers did enough to get by: C.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Que Robinson at No. 87, a reach of 135 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A weekend of give and take that grades a C.

That Lawson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Hit on Cam Skattebo and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Cam Skattebo
In the Round 1 slot they get a bell-cow for the offense, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy in pick No. 55 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87 Rnd3 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at pick 87 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick120 Rnd4 Amari Kight
Value said wait; Amari Kight in Round 4, Pick 19 says they were not listening. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick157 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
A linebacker of that caliber at No. 157 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick223 Rnd7 Garrett Greene
Garrett Greene at the 223rd pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They jumped the gun on Shilo Sanders, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick242 Rnd7 Desmond Evans
A big swing on Desmond Evans at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
