Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Steelers: B-.

The Steelers treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 119 on Khristian Boyd a full 59 spots early.

However the rest shakes out, Latham at that price is a win they earned. The Limmer pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 20th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 JC Latham
Somehow JC Latham was still sitting there in pick 51, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick84 Rnd3 Beaux Limmer
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 84 on Beaux Limmer with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick98 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in slot 98 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick119 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
Value said wait; Khristian Boyd in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick178 Rnd6 Sione Vaki
A safety of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 3 is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick195 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ty'Ron Hopper at the Round 6 slot is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
