Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureC+
Good, not great, for the Steelers: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Steelers started one anyway for Ollie Gordon II, 48 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Nash value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 21 they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cobee Bryant
They talked themselves into Cobee Bryant at the 83rd overall pick, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Will Howard
They liked Will Howard enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 25. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Ollie Gordon II
Value said wait; Ollie Gordon II in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick156 Rnd5 Nick Nash
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 156, where Nick Nash graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in pick 185 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at slot 229 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
