What would the world or the NFL draft be without the most popular social media feed ever? Of course that is Twitter if you just landed from another planet. Some of the newest NFL draftees had comments they tweeted regarding their first-round selections in the NFL draft. Here are a few I found from some of those first-rounders and some related, comical tweets.
Johnny Manziel, quarterback, Cleveland Browns
So honored to be a Cleveland Brown. I can’t wait to get to work. #DraftDay http://t.co/mP95vTpdAO

Whew! I’ll bet Tony Romo is relieved to see Johnny Manziel on his way to Cleveland and out of their shared state of Texas.

Romo’s version: Nice try and you aren’t getting any of this, Manziel. I’ll bet two presidents and my hot wife won’t be sitting at one of your football games. You go Romo!
Only Tony Romo's wife could make a photo of Bill Clinton and George W. Bush look good http://t.co/5f7UqdCKG1 pic.twitter.com/RU8GRP7HOn

Watkins has an amazing heart as well as abilities. Too bad Detroit missed the bus on this one. If things don’t work out with the Bills, you know where you’ve got a job, Sammy.
@sammywatkins we would've loved to have you here in a @DetroitLionsNFL jersey but the bills beat us to the punch!! Good luck this season!!

What a bummer. Now Matthew Stafford will have to keep throwing to the opposite team.
Jadeveon Clowney, defensive end, Houston Texans

Clowney had been talking smack about Andrew Luck of how threatening he and J.J. Watt would be on defense, before the draft. However, now Luck should be afraid, very afraid.
Live look-in at Andrew Luck, realizing he'll have to face JJ Watt & Jadeveon Clowney twice a year: #NFLDraft pic.twitter.com/FpdQhSZ0kE

Run Andrew, run!
Blake Bortles, quarterback, Jacksonville Jaguars

Really, Bortles is saying “eat my shorts,” Manziel. I was the first quarterback selected last night, so ha!
Johnny Manziel also couldn't believe the Jags snubbed him for Blake Bortles http://t.co/7YCRozL6xY

Johnny Manziel is really thinking of how he can score some Lindsey Duke to get even.

Uh yeah, that’s not happening.
