    1. Johnny Manziel, Cleveland Browns
    2. Michael Sam, St. Louis Rams
    3. Jadeveon Clowney, Houston Texans
    4. Teddy Bridgewater, Minnesota Vikings
    5. Blake Bortles, Jacksonville Jaguars

    Interesting notes:

    The league wouldn’t say exactly how many Manziel jerseys were sold, but did say that the official website store sold nearly as many Manziel jerseys across draft weekend, from Thursday to Sunday, as they sold of Robert Griffin III, Andrew Luck and Tim Tebow jerseys during their draft weekends combined.

    “We think this a sign of what we’ve been saying all along, that Michael’s inclusion in the NFL is bringing fans into the game who weren’t previously consumers of the NFL game,” said his agent Cameron Weiss.

    Sucks for NBC and ESPN, not a single Browns game on either network this season. Im sure things would have been much different had the schedule makers known.

    LOL. Who buys jerseys the second a dude is drafted? At least let him play a little bit first.

    Especially with the Jets. I learned that the hard way. I'm putting off getting my Mo Wilks jersey until they pay the man but the second he signs that contract I'm buying it.

    I'm not surprised Manziel has the top selling jersey. He's got a ton of hype behind him.

    Why not buy a rookie Jersey? Your guaranteed 4-5 years of wearing the Jersey granted that it's a 1st or 2nd Rounder.

    Because they may suck, and you're guaranteed 4-5 years of a jersey you paid good money on sitting in a closet unworn until you end up eBaying it for 10 bucks.
