PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Stewart is an undersized but highly explosive pass rusher with elite burst, strong hands, and a relentless motor. His first-step quickness and ability to trim the edge make him a dangerous speed rusher, but he needs to develop counter moves and improve run defense to be a three-down player. Best suited as a designated pass rusher (DPR) or 3-4 OLB in an aggressive front where he can be deployed as a speed-to-power rusher off the edge.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
