Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Allar should have been long gone. The Steelers pounced, and earned a B-.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Drew Allar fell into pick 78.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Muhammad III proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tacario Davis
In the 14th pick they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick46 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at Round 3, Pick 14 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142 Rnd5 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray in pick 142 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick146 Rnd5 Moose Muhammad III
A reach for Moose Muhammad III in the 146th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter at pick No. 189 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206 Rnd7 Steve Linton
Steve Linton in No. 206 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
By-the-book stuff, Oronde Gadsden II at slot 221 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
