Steelers final 2024 NFL Draft Class

A+ for me personally.



A player I had ranked in the Top 15, a player I had just missing the cut in the Top 32 (Zach Frazier), a player I had in the Top 40 (Roman Wilson), a player I had ranked in the Top 50 (Payton Wilson), a player who was a Top 75 prospect (Mason McCormick) and nabbing good values for both Lee and Ryan Watts?!


I will take such results everyday and twice on Sundays please!



The Kahn Master does it again!!

 

It's nice to have line depth.

Pickens I guess is going to be #1. And I'm wondering about him being covered that much. And then wondering who #2 will be..... I doubt it'll happen, but I would like to see the trade for Sutton.

CB I know we have Jackson, I'm just not sold on him and JPJ leading it. I would really like to see us get Sutton back.

I think something will happen after the draft because of Alex Highsmith.

 

I give B+

They looked great but than picked payton wilson being skills. I don't know why people think he's #1 if not for injuries. Furthermore knees are always scary, but shoulders are more scary for a LB..... I see him on special teams.

They also missed solidifying CB and giving WR options.

 

This was touted as a deep draft for OL talent. We took full advantage of that with 3 picks going OL.

Athletic freaks in Roman Wilson, Payton Wilson, and Watts.

Lee only needs to compliment the current rotation on the DL this season. If he contributes more than that, bonus.

I hope to look back in 3 years and give this draft an A++

 

I like potentially having zero anxiety whatsoever about O line play going into a season.

 

You like having zero anxiety about the Offensive Line?!


I missed placing effort to even consider having concern for our Offensive Line in a long... time. Have to go back to 2017 for me.

 

As always, A+ (on paper). Synergy is the watchful word.

 

A-

 

I don’t watch college football and I’m not a draft nerd but going on the consensus and knowing the needs of the team this looks like a really good draft.

The plan is obviously to run the ball and if this Oline can get even above average the steelers will be tough to play against

They have tried to be a run-first ball control offence for years, leaving aside the Matt Canada ordeal they never had the pieces to be what they wanted to be. They may well have them now

 

The last day hurt. I still can't believe CB TJ Tampa was not drafted by the Steelers in the 4th round. Most scouts had a round 2 grade on this kid.

Mike Tomlin adds another one of his Tweener DE's to the roster to go along with Leal and Loudermilk in the sixth. I guess I need to be thankful that Tomlin didn't try to trade up into the 5th with a team, by trading next year's fourth like he did with Loudermilk.

The drafting of Safety Ryan Watts make me believe that we are not bringing in Justin Simmons, despite what AB posted last month.

Day 1 is a solid B
Day 2 is a A+
Day 3 is a C- barely. Damn I still can't believe they passed on TJ Tampa.

Awesome job again!

 

Louis Reddick said earlier today that the Steelers have improved their team more than other team this draft weekend.

 

I believe they might pick up a veteran wr

 

The hope and potential is always there for draft picks. We'll see how well they perform once the lights go on at the highest level.

 

Great draft, all worthy gambles.

 

I know that a great draft does not ensure success, but so far on six different websites that are ratings the draft in its entirety, the Steelers have been listed as an a or a+ for the overall draft. They are in the top three overall on every one of them.

I really feel that Omar is doing a fantastic job on picking out players. Some of them will certainly not perform as hoped, but you can't blame him for the picks he has made. Based on what he is able to see of these players, he's done a phenomenal job......imo.... A couple of years from now he may have built the next Steelers dynasty. I also know that he is not out there digging up all of the information and making the choices solo. There are a lot of people helping....but he is the guy we get to point at and give the credit to.....or label with a scarlet letter when we flip out over something.....lol
