The New York Jets Select

... D'Brickashaw Ferguson, T, Virginia. Honestly, when was the last time two ACC players not from Florida State were picked in the top four of an NFL draft?

ESPN's sequence of camera shots after Ferguson was picked: Jets fans in the balcony, then Matt Leinert's face. Ouch. I'm still not ruling out a deal. The Saints, like everyone else, really liked Ferguson; they just didn't necessarily like him enough to pick him second.

This is a good time, by the way, to request that everyone let the whole "Jets fans at the draft'' obsession go. It's the same thing every year. We know they're going to act crazy, tout one particular player to pick and act like lunatics if they don't get him. Got it. Move on. Or maybe move the draft to different cities, the way the NBA did for a few years.

Anyway, on the clock is Green Bay. Thankfully, the Packers are no longer in the market for a quarterback who can MAKE UP HIS DAMN MIND.
