The problem that really hurt Chia is two fold on these deals.
One, he was going after guys he wanted in the past. Sure maybe there was a case for these guys at one point, but not when we got them.
Two, he didn't have enough from scouts to actually go and scout this useless players.
And to add a third, he didn't use the media. A simple tactic of leaking that we were looking at Manning and the media would've talked to their media friends in Chicago. They would've then found out that the guy was completely useless.
