The Steelers worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. The Tyler Davis pick is the one that will follow the Steelers into the fall. They took him 32 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Spending an early pick on offensive lineman with quarterback, safety and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick 20 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, reach and all. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51
Rnd2
Junior Colson
They took Junior Colson at par in the 51st pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick84
Rnd3
Tyler Davis
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Davis this early at No. 84. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick120
Rnd4
Josh Newton
Josh Newton in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121
Rnd4
Christian Jones
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went offensive lineman with Christian Jones while clear needs at quarterback, safety and other spots sat open.
Pick197
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
No edge and no loss on Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in the 197th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick238
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at No. 238 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
