Obviously, it\u2019s very complex. It\u2019s a great offense to be in. I\u2019ve seen a little bit of it. High expectations and it\u2019s exceeded that, so it\u2019s been amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Players often rave about their experience playing for McVay, who\u2019s one of the brightest minds in the game. Ferguson has already enjoyed his time learning from the Rams\u2019 coach despite it only being May.<\/p>\n<p>He talked about what it\u2019s been like so far, calling it a \u201cdream come true\u201d to play for McVay.

He has a lot of love for me and I appreciate that and just being able to talk with him and being able to play for someone like him is a dream come true. It\u2019s been an amazing experience so far.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>With the way McVay schemes players open and draws up plays, Ferguson is going to get plenty of one-on-one matchups early on.
