"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Kyle&amp;nbsp;Shanahan&amp;nbsp;said Thursday&amp;nbsp;that rookie backup quarterback Johnny&amp;nbsp;Manziel&amp;nbsp;was worth the first-round draft pick.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Browns traded up to the&amp;nbsp;22nd&amp;nbsp;pick from the&amp;nbsp;26th&amp;nbsp;spot to get&amp;nbsp;Manziel&amp;nbsp;in the 2014 NFL draft.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Manziel competed with veteran Brian Hoyer in training camp for the starting quarterback spot, but was&amp;nbsp;named the backup&amp;nbsp;in late August by head coach Mike&amp;nbsp;Pettine.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everything you need to know about the 2014 NFL season\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Cleveland Plain Dealer&lt;/em&gt;:\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"(He's) worth a first-round draft pick,''&amp;nbsp;Shanahan&amp;nbsp;told reporters Thursday. \"We liked him. I'm glad he's here. I've loved coaching Johnny so far, he's a professional. I don't really know all the stuff that people are ripping him about. I don't have time to read it all, but Johnny's been great. I'm excited to see him play, (and I) think you guys will be too.''\r\n\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Shanahan&amp;nbsp;wouldn't say if the Browns had plans to use&amp;nbsp;Manziel&amp;nbsp;on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but said he has never used two quarterbacks on purpose before.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In two seasons at Texas A&amp;amp;M,&amp;nbsp;Manziel&amp;nbsp;threw for 7,820 yards, 63 touchdowns, and 22 interceptions in 26 games. He also ran for 2,169 yards and 30 touchdowns.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Browns also drafted cornerback Justin Gilbert from Oklahoma State in the first round, with the No. 8 overall pick.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BISHOP:&amp;nbsp;Harvin&amp;nbsp;key to a Seahawks repeat&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Sarah Barshop&lt;/em&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
