In the first big move of the 2009 NFL Draft, the Jets have made a deal with the Browns to move up to the #5 spot in the NFL Draft to pick USC QB Mark Sanchez.

The Browns get three players and two picks – the Jets first and second round picks this season.

The Players the Browns get are DE Kenyon Coleman, QB Brett Ratliff, and S Abram Elam. The picks are the 17th and the 57th overall.

Here’s the Bio on Sanchez from Draft Countdown:

Strengths:

Nice bulk and a solid frame…Good athlete…Arm strength is more than adequate and can make all the throws…Good mechanics and delivery with a quick release…Terrific accuracy…Really anticipates well and displays nice touch and timing…Will buy time in the pocket and make plays with his feet…Can throw on the run…Good ball skills…Intelligent with a high football IQ…Recognizes blitzes, can read coverages and go through his progressions…Product of a pro style offense…Is tough, fiery and super competitive…Truly loves the game…Excellent work ethic…A team leader and field general…Media savvy…Still has upside.

Weaknesses:

Limited starting experience…Doesn’t have the ideal height that you look for…Durability is a concern…Does not always throw a tight spiral…Has some trouble with the deep ball…Can get flustered by a strong pass rush…Makes some bad decisions…Won’t run away from people…Had an issue off-the-field…Was surrounded by a lot of talent.

Notes:

Was the consensus #1 quarterback recruit in the country coming out of high school…As a prep he was mentored by noted quarterback guru Bob Johnson…Redshirted in 2005…Battled for the starting job after Matt Leinart graduated but lost out to John David Booty and served as a backup the next two years…Finally took over the starting job as a redshirt junior in 2008…Was arrested and suspended in 2006 after being accused of sexually assaulting a female student but no charges were filed due to “a lack of sufficient evidence beyond a reasonable doubt”…Broke his thumb in 2007…Dislocated his kneecap prior to the 2008 season…Ended his Trojan career on a high note by completing 28 of 35 attempts (80%) for 413 yards and 4 touchdowns in the Rose Bowl against Penn St…Only started 16 college games…With another year of development he might have been in contention to be the #1 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft…More talented than Matt Leinart but not quite in Carson Palmer’s class…Lack of experience is a huge concern and he may require some development and patience…Has the physical tools and intangibles to be a franchise signal caller in the NFL.
