Cleveland fans rejoiced last season when they franchise drafted Johnny Manziel with the 22nd pick of the first round. They viewed it as a miracle that he had fallen so far and that they were able to swoop in and take their quarterback of the future. Not even one year later, many fans of the team probably no longer feel that way.

Some argued that the move was a mistake at the time. After all, Manziel was an undersized quarterback that struggled with accuracy at times and relied too heavily on his athelticism. When he finally got on the field, he did make some Johnny Football plays, but he made far more mistakes and looked generally unprepared to play at the professional level. Now it appears that the team may be ready to admit failure on the Manziel Era and move on.

Chris Mortensen appeared on Mike & Mike earlier this week, and he explained what he thinks about the Browns and Manziel.

"I think about 90 percent (the Browns) have moved on (from Manziel) in their own minds except that they really don't know who they're going to get when Johnny leaves rehab, which has been an extended stay - a two-month stay," said Mortensen.

"He should be getting out in the first week of April if they're satisfied that he's ready to go out and get into society and whatever deep-rooted problems that he had has been addressed. OK, now he's part of your depth chart. You have Josh McCown.

"Yes, the Browns were the team, with the 19th pick (of the 2015 NFL draft), talked to the Rams about that pick in trying to acquire Sam Bradford," Mortensen continued. "But there was no quarterback that they could send to St. Louis in return.

"The Eagles and (head coach) Chip Kelly have Mark Sanchez as a placeholder until Sam Bradford is healthy, and so I don't think Bradford is going to be available. They would like him to sign an extension, something he wouldn't have done had he gone to Cleveland.

"So I don't see why Cleveland could sit there and give up a first-round draft pick for somebody who's not inclined to sign an extension. ... If we were sitting around the living room, we'd be kicking all this stuff around. But the bottom line is Johnny Manziel's future with the Browns has been in question."
