Opinions on Shemar Stewart at 12?

So how would you feel if he’s the pick?

I'd throw up. He isn't the 12th best prospect in this draft.

Dane has him at no 9,you can bet the Cowboys will have ranked him similarly ,the only Question is whether we have any WR ahead of him.

Stewart would upgrade the defensive line and has the potential to be the best player in the draft. Physically if you measure Stewart to Carter it’s not even close. I would seriously consider him with our first pick. For those that complain about his 4.5 career sacks, college football defenses are much different then the NFL.

Pretty sure Trance had potential as well.

Agree it is a risk, but if he had the production he’d be a top 5 pick. His tape shows crazy motor & traits, should translate in the NFL especially next to Micah. I understand fans could be sour on selecting Stewart because of Mazi’s “underwear potential” but Stewart’s film is much better & his motor is elite which I highly value on the DL.

IF HE HAD THE PRODUCTION
no matter how you try and spin it that is REALITY that he DOES NOT HAVE THE PRODUCTION

At 12? Hard no.

At 28? Sure.

His lack of production cannot be explained away. If he only averaged 4-5 sacks a year in college that’d be one thing. But he only totaled 4.5 sacks for his career.

Folks have tried to trot out the “it’s the scheme” excuse, but let me break the news to everyone: There is not a defensive coordinator in the country that tells his d-linemen to just play gaps and not pressure the QB on passing downs/distance.

His own teammate, Nic Scrouton had 5 sacks last season.

He is not a football player at this point. He is just a great athlete.

12 would be too rich.

This guy has a TON of potential. While he didn't get sacks he pressured the QB at an elite rate. He just needs to learn how to wrap up and learn a few more moves.

He would bring a lot of speed to our defense, which is what we need.

He is a good football player. He is just not a good finisher. He had 39 pressures last year. He needs alot of work, but saying "he is not a good football player at this point" is lazy

you do not spend a high draft choice on potential
witness Mazi
