Draft Profile: Bio
Terion Stewart, a junior running back from Bowling Green, has emerged as a dynamic force in the MAC. Born and raised in Sandusky, Ohio, Stewart made his mark early, earning two-time first-team All-Ohio honors at Sandusky High School. His prep career was highlighted by an impressive senior season, amassing 2,150 yards and 29 touchdowns, cementing his status as a three-star recruit.

At Bowling Green, Stewart's impact was immediate. In the COVID-shortened 2020 season, he led the Falcons with 295 yards and four touchdowns, averaging a staggering 8.0 yards per carry. His breakout performance came against Kent State, where he exploded for 162 yards and two touchdowns in the fourth quarter alone. Stewart's trajectory continued upward in 2021, leading the team with 412 rushing yards and five touchdowns despite missing three games due to injury.

After sitting out the 2022 season, Stewart returned with a vengeance in 2023. In just nine games, he racked up 762 rushing yards and eight touchdowns, earning second-team All-MAC honors. His 4.81 yards per rush after contact ranked second nationally, showcasing his ability to create yardage beyond the line of scrimmage. Stewart's performance against Georgia Tech, where he rushed for 138 yards, earned him MAC East Offensive Player of the Week honors, highlighting his potential against higher-level competition.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Punishing runner with a bruising style, consistently churning out yardage after initial contact and wearing down defenses.
  • Exceptional contact balance and leg drive, routinely shedding would-be tacklers and turning stuffs into positive gains.
  • Home run threat on every touch, with the burst to hit the hole and second-level acceleration to outrun pursuit angles.
  • Workhorse potential with a stout frame built to withstand the rigors of a heavy workload at the next level.
  • Runs with good pad level and leverage, presenting a small target and finishing runs with authority.
  • Flashes soft hands out of the backfield, hinting at untapped potential in the passing game.
  • Rises to the occasion against top competition, suggesting the ability to elevate his game when the lights are brightest.
  • Developmental arc points upward, with consistent year-over-year improvement in production and efficiency.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Medical red flags with multiple injuries in college, raising concerns about long-term availability and durability.
  • Raw in pass protection, often caught flat-footed or using poor technique when asked to pick up blitzers.
  • Limited route tree and receiving production, potentially hampering his three-down value at the next level.
  • Lacks elite long speed, potentially capping his big-play ability against faster NFL defenses.
  • Tendency to dance behind the line of scrimmage at times, needs to improve decisiveness hitting the hole.
Scouting Report: Summary
A bowling ball with legs, Stewart brings a physical, downhill running style that punishes defenders and wears down front sevens. His exceptional contact balance and ability to run through arm tackles make him a nightmare for defensive backs in the open field. Stewart's powerful lower body and natural leverage allow him to push the pile and fall forward, consistently turning two-yard gains into five-yard chunks.

While not a burner, Stewart possesses enough juice to be a threat at the second level, with the ability to rip off chunk plays when he finds a crease. His vision and patience behind the line of scrimmage are developing traits that, coupled with his tackle-breaking ability, could make him a valuable asset in zone-blocking schemes. However, his effectiveness in pass protection and receiving game will need significant development for him to see the field on third downs at the next level.

Stewart profiles as a potential committee back with the upside to develop into a lead runner in a power-based offense. His ability to create yardage after contact and finish runs with authority will endear him to NFL coaches looking to establish a physical ground game. While durability concerns and limitations in the passing game may impact his draft stock, Stewart's bruising style and big-play potential make him a solid day three prospect with the tools to outperform his draft position.

*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.
