Stewart was inside the Langston-Brown Community Center near his Hall’s Hill neighborhood the night of April 27 when the Yorktown High School and UNC graduate learned that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had picked him in the second round of the NFL draft. “I am ready,” the 6-foot, 205-pound defensive back and punt returner said as he waited to learn his fate.
