Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureD+
The Steelers let Washington fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Steelers did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Malik Washington fell into the 161st pick. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Reaching for Gore Jr. left real value on the table behind him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 20 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. More want than need.
Pick22 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 1, Pick 22 leaves interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots for later.
Pick24 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
Good price on Quinyon Mitchell in the 24th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick124 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 124 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick161 Rnd5 Malik Washington
Malik Washington in slot 161 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
They talked themselves into Frank Gore Jr. at No. 178, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick211 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
Circle this one: M.J. Devonshire at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Taulia Tagovailoa
Value said wait; Taulia Tagovailoa in the 251st pick says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
