The New York Jets have agreed to terms with offensive lineman Vladimir Ducasse, the team's second-round draft pick, on a four-year contract, a person familiar with the deal tells The Associated Press.

The person spoke on the condition of anonymity Wednesday because the team hadn't announced the signing.

Ducasse, the 61st overall pick, is competing with Matt Slauson for the starting left guard spot. Alan Faneca had started there the past two seasons, but was cut after the Jets drafted Ducasse.

Three of the Jets' four draft picks have signed, with only first-rounder Kyle Wilson not under contract.
