For a number four pick? That's not surprising, unless you had questions about his durability coming out of college. What's more surprising is that I read he's been to three Pro Bowls. From what I recall, he was pretty average, even something of a disappointment, in his first couple of seasons with New York.

It is impressive regardless of where he was drafted. I guess I can't say for sure, but other than a few quarterbacks, how many position players have started EVERY game since 2006? Hard to stay healthy in the NFL. Maybe I am wrong. There might be a few, but I would bet he's the longest active streak for non QBs. OL is probably the next most abundant position for this category but still.

Yeah, he's tied at #2 for active players with 128 straight starts. London Fletcher, who just retired, had 221.

Good call. That's a lot of games.

Nah man, D'Brickashaw is well above average. He is a stud. He has been one of my favorites in the NFL for quite sometime. That 2006 draft for the Jets was awesome. Both Ferguson and Mangold. Not to mention the Jets also drafted Leon Washington that year as well.

Still rolling. A model of consistency. He's playing well too.
