And a lot of the video I watched had him lined up at RDE. Can he play LDE, or is he Trey’s back up plan / rotational guy (I don’t see Trey come off the field often, if at all really)? I foresee a rotation at LDE this year with a heavy dose of Ossai unless they double up and draft another, mid round (L)DE if Stewart can’t play LDE.

Missed tackles are rough but, like I keep saying, sometimes a pressure is better than a sack, and pressure in the run game at least slows a back up and allows other defenders a chance to get to him.

Let's also not forget that Golden said that he wants to focus on fundamentals and cure the mistakes of things like too many missed tackles, so sounds like he's coming in to the perfect place for him.

Could the pick have been better? Sure. Is this pick the end of the world? Not at all.

People seem to think the sky is falling but we got a guy with all the physical traits you want, already a good run defender, and seems to be able to get to the QB when given the chance but needs to become a better finisher. Hopefully he can come in and be a good player year 1 and improve on some of his deficiencies with the new coaching staff.

A lot of times, a pressure can be better than a sack because it leads to rushed throws and interceptions. He wasn't used properly at A&M and does need improvements, but, for the hundredth time, I like this pick and don't think it's a Mike Brown "what the F was that" pick like we used to see when he was running things.
