Chad Pennington and Curtis Martin must have been smiling on draft day as not only did the Jets grab the best center (Nick Mangold) in the draft, but also the best LT to appear since Orlando Pace was drafted in 1997.  Ferguson is fast (5.1 40) for a man of his size (6-5, 297 lbs.) and is excellent leading the sweep and fast enough to hit a moving target.  Ferguson started 49 games at Virginia, thus showing his durability and dependabilty.    Ferguson is also a very good pass blocker, which should really help out whichever QB is standing in the pocket.

Forget Reggie Bush and Mario Wiliiams….the Jets are smiling now.  The first “Brick” in the rebuilding process is now set in stone.
