The New York Jets dropped some serious jack on QB Mark Sanchez hours after picking him fifth in this weekend's NFL draft.
TMZ has learned the Jets spent $13,488 to fly Mark and five other family members first class -- LA to NY Saturday night. Gang Green also picked up the tab for a business class seat and two coach tickets (Mark's nephew and sis-in-law drew the short straws).
Sounds like the Jets are going all out to match the pampering Sanchez got as BMOC at USC.

Quarterback Matthew Stafford could ink a six-year deal in the $80 million range with the Lions by this weekend's draft, but who the hell cares -- we can't get over how darn cute he is with that "Aww, shucks" smile!
