Anyone familiar with this kid from La. Tech?

The New Orleans Saints will meet up with Louisiana Tech defensive end Jaylon Ferguson and put him through a workout ahead of the 2019 NFL Draft, per Sean Fazende of FOX8 New Orleans. Ferguson has been a force for the Bulldogs ever since he stepped on campus in 2015, eventually breaking Terrell Suggs’ NCAA record with 45 sacks in his four-year career. Ferguson was also wildly productive against the run, recording 67.5 tackles for loss of yards.

Yes. In several articles recently about Top 5 / 10 players likely to fall, he's in nearly every one I've read or mentioned; don't know if that is opposition draft gamemanship...

Most of the recent scouting reports have highlighted his poor bend/flexibility about the edge; some have mentioned a Freshman year arrest for assault that was "negotiated" down to a misdemeanor...

In spite of all that, he's the NCAA FBS Career Leader in Sacks (45). I find he's a lot like Mario Edwards, a tweener between a SDE and a DT3; he may, may fall out of the first round, but is likely gone in the Top 50...
