On Thursday night (May 8th), Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel was selected by the Cleveland Browns as the 22nd overall pick of this year's draft. This came as a huge shock to football fans, as "Johnny Football" was one of the most covered college players of the past few years, not only for the skills that got him the 2012 Heisman, but for his persona off the field -- namely his friendship with Toronto rapper Drake whose song "Draft Day" was based heavily on Manziel and the moment that transpired last night.
Cleveland fans were ecstatic that Manziel will be joining the roaster and injecting some new life into the team, though there was heavy speculation that Dallas would pick up Manziel considering owner Jerry Jones has a known love for Texas A&M, not to mention the drama that could come from a Manziel/Tony Romo QB conflict. Dallas passed however, and avoided the mess altogether, with Manziel himself admitting "I don't know if the world can handle that, honestly," in reference to potentially playing for the Texas team.
Regardless of whether he was first or last pick, he made it to the big field and buddy Drizzy was one of the first to congratulate him via Instagram.
