FA pass rushing DT's were getting WAY more than they merited in FA (I would not have payed one). If we didn't love any of the Rd1 types in the draft, this solution was a decent one.
And while I hated the Stewart pick (too risky, likely needs a year), he does have a high ceiling and if he hits, he can help at DE and interior pass rush. Two birds with one stone. Which is always a tempting bet when you are trying to fill a lot of holes.
Stewart looks like a mismatch for Guards watching him, he is so quick he gets into the Guards chest immediately and he has long arms and
is strong. Saw him beat Fairchild a bit in some of the vids and everyone has been raving about Fairchild until Stewart got signed. Stewart at
DT on passing downs could be very effective. I like what I am seeing now that he is signed.
