Draft Grade — Steelers

Larceny in pick No. 98 lands the Steelers a B, Worthy and all.

When a board-topper like Xavier Worthy slides to slot 98, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Olumuyiwa Fashanu in Round 1, Pick 20. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick51 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at slot 51 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
They will replay T.J. Tampa at the 84th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in pick No. 98 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
