Rookie Jaylon Ferguson faces obvious comparisons to former Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs.
Ferguson finished his career at Louisiana Tech as the all-time sacks leader in the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision with 45 sacks, breaking a record previously held by Suggs.
At 6-feet-5, 271 pounds, Ferguson stands bigger than Suggs and is an imposing figure that should create matchup problems.
Ferguson, who was taken in the third round, is also charismatic and has some of the natural leadership skills of Suggs, who was a focal point of the Ravens’ locker room.
