Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Mondon Jr.: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Smael Mondon Jr. tumbling to the Steelers in slot 161 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The Wedig pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at pick 52 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at slot 83 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Azareye'h Thomas
You do not let a cornerback like Azareye'h Thomas reach pick No. 121 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick161 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in No. 161 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick223 Rnd7 Clay Webb
A quiet steal in the 223rd pick: Clay Webb for less than the market said. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick229 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the 229th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick245 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trey Wedig this early at Round 7, Pick 29. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
