Draft Grade — Steelers
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Steelers and Moore: B.

The board owed the Steelers one, and it paid up: Rod Moore, the No. 69 name on the board, sitting there at the 103rd pick like a gift left on the doorstep. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with edge rusher and tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In pick No. 29 they get a No. 1 receiver, and a steal at that.
Pick58 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nyck Harbor at slot 58. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Austin Barber
They read the board right and Austin Barber was the payoff at No. 79. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick93 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
A quarterback of that caliber at the 93rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Harold Perkins Jr. at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Rod Moore
They robbed the room for Rod Moore here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
DJ McKinney in Round 4, Pick 26 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick130 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Parker Brailsford in the 130th pick leaves edge rusher and tight end for later.
Pick133 Rnd4 Blake Miller
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 33: Blake Miller adds an offensive lineman while edge rusher and tight end keeps waiting.
Pick134 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at pick 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A conviction pick on DJ Campbell at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jaydn Ott
A straight-up fair deal on Jaydn Ott at the 172nd pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick209 Rnd6 Bud Clark
Bud Clark in No. 209 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd6 Malachi Nelson
Malachi Nelson at slot 217 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Daevin Hobbs
A tidy little value on Daevin Hobbs in the 243rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
