Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Larceny in Round 3, Pick 20 lands the Steelers a B+, Cooper and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Edgerrin Cooper slide, and the Steelers were the ones holding the card at pick No. 84. Highway robbery. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

They are betting Tagovailoa proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

They will answer for taking offensive lineman early while safety, edge rusher and other spots went begging. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins in pick No. 22 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at slot 51 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick84 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
Steal is underselling it; Edgerrin Cooper at Round 3, Pick 20 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Javon Baker
A straight-up fair deal on Javon Baker at the 97th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick120 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
By-the-book stuff, McKinnley Jackson at the 120th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A surprising call. With safety, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Javon Foster, an offensive lineman they were not short of.
Pick197 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at No. 197 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick238 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
A big swing on Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 238, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
