The most successful pass rushers in the NFL are typically players that showcased both good production and good athleticism in college. These are your Myles Garretts, Josh Hines-Allens, Aiden Hutchinsons etc.
Once you go a tier below that, you get players who had good production but bad athleticism in college and players who had bad production in college but good athleticism.
Stewart is in that third group.
From my perspective, we already tried that when we drafted Myles Murphy.
It was a disaster (so far).
So, if we can't have a prospect from the first group, I'd like to try our hand at the second group before trying the third group again.
The players that people always reference that fit Stewart's profile of elite athlete with horrible production are Rashan Gary and Danielle Hunter. A third example given is Travon Walker. He has had back to back 10 sack seasons, but I hear his advanced stats still leave a lot to be desired (a lot of clean up sacks, basically).
I personally think Hunter was drafted in the correct range for this particular profile. The 3rd round.
Taking a player with bad production in the first round just seems like bad business to me. Not every prospect will be Rashan Gary.
But I'm not a professional scout, and scouts always love players with Stewart's profile.
