Bust..

Quote:

If defensive lineman Ego Ferguson’s ego was heavily invested in being employed by the Bears, it took a blow on Friday.

The Bears announced that they have waived the three-year veteran from their roster. He’ll become a free agent if he goes unclaimed by the other 31 teams in the league.

Ferguson came to Chicago as a second-round pick in 2014, but only played 20 games with the team due to injuries. Ferguson missed 12 games in 2015 with a knee injury and missed all of last season after suffering a shoulder injury late in the preseason.

He had 26 tackles and two sacks when he was able to get on the field and is young enough at 25 that someone else will probably take a look in hopes that Ferguson’s next few years are more productive than the last couple have been.

Team with no chance to win anything and needs to develop young players gives up on a 25 year old 2014 second round pick? Good thing 32 yo quentin demps was signed

Bears "expert" Mike Mulligan is stunned.
Bears apologist Zac Zaidman changes his previous thoughts about the emergence of Ferguson to the pro-active front office moving on.

Other than draft position and age there is nothing positive to say about Ego Ferguson. This pick was an obvious bust from the moment it was made.

In the 2nd round of the 2014 NFL draft, the Bears had a chance to draft Jimmy Garrappalo. They drafted Ego Ferguson instead.

He'll be a pro-bowl alternate this season now.
