Draft Profile: Bio

Shemar Stewart, a defensive end/edge rusher from Texas A&M, arrived in College Station as a five-star prospect from Monsignor Pace High School in Florida. In 2022, Stewart played all 12 games as a freshman, starting six, and earned the defensive Top Newcomer award at the team banquet.

Stewart's sophomore season saw him play all 13 games, including a start in the Texas Bowl against Oklahoma State. He tied for second on the team with six hurries and recorded his first career interception, returning it 43 yards for a touchdown against Mississippi State. His performance earned him the Defensive Most Improved award at the annual team banquet.

In 2024, Stewart continued as a key component of the Aggies' defensive line, making two starts and contributing in games against Notre Dame and McNeese. Over three seasons, Stewart amassed 796 defensive snaps across 27 games in the SEC.

Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Prototype build for the position with ideal length and a powerful frame, creating mismatches against most offensive tackles.
  • Explosive get-off at the snap, consistently beating blockers to the punch and penetrating the backfield.
  • Scheme-versatile defender with the ability to play multiple techniques along the defensive front.
  • Heavy hands and long levers allow him to stack and shed effectively, maintaining outside leverage in run defense.
  • Showcases a potent bull rush, converting speed to power and walking tackles back into the pocket.
  • Flashes an expanding toolbox of pass rush moves, indicating potential for further development as a pocket disruptor.
  • Iron man durability, suiting up for every game throughout his collegiate career.
  • Motor runs hot, displaying relentless pursuit and second-effort plays when unblocked.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Anchor in run defense needs bolstering, occasionally getting displaced by double teams or down blocks.
  • Finishing ability as a tackler is inconsistent, leading to missed opportunities in the backfield.
  • Pass rush plan can be one-dimensional, relying too heavily on physical dominance rather than technique.
  • Counter moves are underdeveloped, limiting effectiveness when initial rush is stymied.
  • Hand usage in pass rush can be improved, particularly in terms of timing and placement to defeat blocks more efficiently.
Scouting Report: Summary
A raw-but-talented edge defender with the physical tools to become a force at the next level. Stewart's blend of size, explosiveness, and power off the edge make him a moldable piece of clay for NFL defensive line coaches. His ability to play multiple positions along the front presents valuable scheme versatility for creative defensive coordinators.

Despite his impressive physical attributes, Stewart remains a work in progress in terms of technique and consistency. His pass rush toolkit shows promise but needs expansion and refinement to consistently win against NFL-caliber tackles. In the run game, improved leverage and hand placement will be crucial for him to anchor effectively and make more impact plays.

Stewart's ceiling is that of a disruptive every-down defensive end who can collapse the pocket and set a strong edge against the run. His floor, however, is that of a rotational player who flashes occasionally but struggles to put it all together consistently. The team that drafts Stewart will be betting on their ability to harness his considerable physical gifts and mold him into a more polished and productive defender.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
