The 2015 NFL Draft kicked off on Thursday night, and Round One has been quite eventful for Commissioner Roger Goodell thus far.

He first butchered Marcus Mariota’s name after announcing that the Titans were drafting the quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick, and a short time later, he was greeted by an overjoyed Danny Shelton.

When Goodell announced that the Cleveland Browns had selected Shelton with the No. 12 pick, the 339-pound nose tackle first gave the commissioner a traditional hug on stage. He then picked Goodell up and gave him a bear hug.

Goodell certainly didn’t see that one coming. Shelton was clearly excited about landing in Cleveland.
