Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedA- TradesA+ FutureD
A passer of the future in Nix, and a B-, for the Steelers.

The Steelers looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Steele Chambers at the Round 4 slot regardless, 99 picks early.

Whatever Bo Nix becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Bo Nix
Bo Nix at pick 20 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
A tidy little value on Jonathon Brooks in Round 2, Pick 19, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick119 Rnd4 Steele Chambers
This one needs a full-page explanation: Steele Chambers in No. 119, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
They reached into another round for Sam Hartman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick195 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They took Josh Proctor at par in slot 195, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
