What Ourlads NFL Scouting Services said about EGO FERGUSON leading up to the 2014 NFL Draft: LSU, 6027 315 5.00. Junior entry. Played in 38 games with 12 starts in his career. Impressive player who is constantly fighting off blocks and making a difference against the run. Pursues well towards the sideline but he can also eat up the double team and anchor his position. Plays a similar style to Bennie Logan, currently of the Eagles. A physical inside stack and shed tackle who draws double teams on a regular basis. Does a good job of exploding and extending low and crossing the face of a blocker. Good lateral quickness. Naturally strong at holding his ground. Played in a rotation his first two years for the Tigers where his main job was to help secure the middle of the defense. Doesn’t stay blocked. Plays with leverage on blocks and is rarely sealed. Finishes pursuit on plays to the outside. When rushing the passer he has good hand strength to get inside a blocker’s frame and control movement. Needs technique work as an inside pass rusher. Plays without knee and hip bend at times. 2013 stats: 58 T, 3.5 TFL, 1 sack. Medical exclusion at Combine, right ankle. Second/third round. (A-32 1/2, H-10 3/4, BP-24, 10-DNP).
