I am sure there are lots of grades out there and her is one from NFL.com. They gave us a B.

Round 1 (No. 17): Edge Shemar Stewart, Texas A&M



Analysis:

Stewart had 4.5 sacks in three seasons at Texas A&M, so it will be interesting to see if he can improve his rush moves and change-of-direction ability to track down quarterbacks more regularly in the NFL. His get-off and straight-line speed are excellent, though, and he's very strong against the run. This pick addressed the team’s biggest area of need, given the uncertainty about Trey Hendrickson's future with the Bengals.

Here is PFF who grade him average.

Pick Grade: Average


While Stewart’s pass-rush production (67.2 PFF pass-rush grade) leaves something to be desired, he is an incredibly high-potential athlete off the edge. His 88.2 PFF run-defense grade last season will get him on the field early and provide him with a solid floor as he further develops — potentially into Trey Hendrickson’s successor.
