Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Grand theft in the 62nd overall pick: the Steelers steal Starks and grade out a B+.

Somebody in the 62nd pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Steelers sat still while Malaki Starks, the No. 26 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Derrick Harmon
In pick 30 they get a load in the middle. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in pick No. 62 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
They paid up for Jalen Milroe at No. 83 when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick123 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Savion Williams
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Savion Williams in the 125th pick, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick156 Rnd5 DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens in slot 156 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson in the 170th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick185 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on JJ Pegues. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
A clean, defensible pick in Round 7, Pick 13 with a little surplus value in Carson Vinson. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick256 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
Marcus Yarns at pick 256 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
