Willx65 DRAFTING FOR THESteelers
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Steelers

The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Shough: B. You build a draft on nights like this. Tyler Shough had no business being available in Round 6, Pick 9, and the Steelers did the only sane thing and turned in the card.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In the 21st overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside, outstanding value to boot.
Pick83
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
They paid sticker price for Andrew Mukuba in the Round 3 slot, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick123
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in No. 123 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick156
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bhayshul Tuten. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185
Rnd6
Tyler Shough
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Shough at pick 185 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
