The sentimental side of me finds it hard to imagine life without D’Brickashaw Ferguson lining up at the left tackle position for the New York Jets, but the realist within can see that it is time to start looking towards the future at that critical spot on the offensive line. Ferguson has had an incredibly successful career protecting the blind side for NY Jets quarterbacks since being selected in the first round of the 2006 NFL Draft, but he is not getting any younger as he is due to reach the age of 33 during the 2016 season. It is also no secret to anyone who has been watching the team over the years, that his game is not what it once was, which is natural for anyone going into their 11th season in the league.
