Ego Ferguson was a bruising LSU run-stopper with NFL-ready size
In the 2013 season, Ego Ferguson emerged as a high-motor interior defender for LSU, finishing with 58 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, 1 sack, and honorable mention All-SEC honors before declaring early for the NFL Draft.[1][5] His calling card was simple and valuable: at 6-foot-3 and about 309-315 pounds, he brought heavy hands, lane-stuffing power, and enough agility to play multiple front looks, though evaluators noted he was more disruptive against the run than as a true pass-rush finisher.[1][8] If you need a stout, physical DT who can anchor the middle and eat blocks, that’s his lane; if you want bendy edge-style pressure from the interior, that’s not his game.[8]
