Scouting report
Stewart signed a one-year deal with the Ravens last offseason and started 14 games in 2014, intercepting one pass and forcing one fumble. Before that, he spent four years with the Rams, who signed him as a rookie free agent out of South Carolina. In his five years, Stewart has started 33 of 70 games and compiled two interceptions, four sacks and four forced fumbles. He made $1.3 last year in base salary and bonus, per spotrac.com.
Geoff’s take
Safety was one of the weaknesses of the Ravens’ defense last year, and Stewart started 14 games for them. So what’s that tell you? I’m sure he’s OK, but Nate Allen is OK and the Eagles are trying to upgrade that position into something more impactful than OK. So I’d pass on this guy. He’s probably not that much better than Chris Prosinski, Jerome Couplin III or Chris Maragos.
Roob’s take
What’s that line about rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic? The Eagles have tried to upgrade safety over the years with O.J. Atogwe, Jaiquawn Jarrett, Marlin Jackson, Jarrad Paige, David Sims, Sean Jones, Patrick Chung, Quintin Demps, Tom Nelson, Jamar Adams, Macho Haris, Keelan Johnson and a cast of thousands. They need a real upgrade. Not another guy who can’t play.
