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 No. 229 on Xavier Truss a full 69 spots early. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Porter.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 21 they get a load in the middle at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick94 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at the 94th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Value with a capital V on Savion Williams in pick 104, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jacob Parrish. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
By-the-book stuff, Bhayshul Tuten at pick No. 156 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 9: DJ Giddens for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick229 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
A real head-scratcher, Xavier Truss in pick No. 229 is miles ahead of his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
