Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Steelers let Hardy fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: Daequan Hardy, the No. 217 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 7 slot like a gift left on the doorstep.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Rosemy-Jacksaint has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 21st pick they get a building block for the line. Need was not the driver here.
Pick53 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 21: T.J. Tampa for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick85 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson slipping to slot 85 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120 Rnd4 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They talked themselves into Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at No. 120, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick242 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Taking Daequan Hardy in the 242nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
