Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall

FutureB
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Steelers to a D+. Nobody else had Donovan Smith anywhere near slot 229. The Steelers did, by 39 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Landing Grant that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In the 24th overall pick they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick45
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
The board fumbled Kenneth Grant all the way to pick 45, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Steal is underselling it; Quinshon Judkins at the 83rd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123
Rnd4
Tyler Shough
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Shough in the Round 4 slot, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139
Rnd5
Malachi Moore
No drama and no debate, Malachi Moore went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 1. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 151 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick156
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
A swing that ignored the value entirely, JJ Pegues well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick185
Rnd6
Clay Webb
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Clay Webb. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick229
Rnd7
Donovan Smith
Donovan Smith in pick No. 229 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
