Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA FutureB+
The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Kiser: B+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Steelers watched Jack Kiser slide 63 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If Travis pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Omarion Hampton
In the Round 1 slot they get a centerpiece for the ground game, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Booker at pick 52. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick83 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
They will replay Zy Alexander at the 83rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ricky White III
Ricky White III in slot 174 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick181 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
They liked Seth McLaughlin enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 181. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick211 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
A straight-up fair deal on Davison Igbinosun at No. 211, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
By-the-book stuff, Jahvaree Ritzie at Round 7, Pick 7 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at the 229th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick No. 245 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
