Apparently not everyone was enamored with the Steelers’ draft.

In a segment titled NFL Draft Grades, the NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks gave the Steelers a C+ for their effort.

Yet, they still had plenty of superlatives for the franchise.

“Mike Tomlin was intent on make sure he cleaned out the locker room,” Brooks said as he rated the Steelers’ picks.

Brooks blessed the team’s “aggressive move” to grab Devin Bush in the first round, calling him a “sideline-to-sideline playmaker.”

He dubbed running back Benny Snell a “carbon copy of James Conner.”
