Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureF
The Steelers drew a line under the quarterback search with Sanders: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Donovan Edwards got past him. The Steelers do not have to explain a thing at No. 223. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

So much rides on Shedeur Sanders that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In slot 5 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Josh Simmons
Josh Simmons at Round 2, Pick 26 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick128 Rnd4 Shemar Stewart
Shemar Stewart at pick No. 128 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick143 Rnd5 J.Michael Sturdivant
By-the-book stuff, J.Michael Sturdivant at the 143rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick163 Rnd5 Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane in the 163rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
They will replay Donovan Edwards at slot 223 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy in No. 229 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
They paid up for Jason Henderson at pick 240 when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
