4/25/2009 - Browns swap picks with Jets, Buc .... then Philly?!?

Get the Scoop

Berea—The Browns were able to make the trade that is often talked about.

That is to trade down out of the top five picks.

The trade with the Jets saved the Browns a lot of money on their first draft choice. If nothing changes, the Browns will have the 17th pick, instead of the fifth pick. Taking advantage of the Jets wanting to draft Mark Sanchez, the Browns were able to add another second-round draft choice (52nd overall) in this year’s draft, along with three players Kenyon Coleman, Abram Elam and Brett Ratliff.

The Browns tried to sign Elam as a restricted free agent, but the Jets matched the offer. The Kent State product is expected to be a favorite to start opposite of Brodney Pool at safety, while Coleman might be a strong candidate to start at defensive end.

The Browns then traded down from the 17th pick by swapping with the Tampa Bay Buc for the 19th pick and a 6th round pick. Two picks later at 19, the Browns did the exact same thing with Philadelphia and moved down to the 21st pick and again getting another additional 6th round pick.

With the 21st pick, the Browns FINALLY made a pick taking Alex Mack - Center out of California. Pundits consider this a solid pick and the Browns can always use good linemen. A rumored silver lining is that the Steelers were hoping Mack would fall to them at 32. If this is true, then Mangini certainly gets the rivalry concept.
