Hasselbeck was the backup to Eli at that point and was talking about what was going on at that time. Being that he had accomplished little in his first three years when you look at what they give up for him the difference between "bust" and "disappointment" is a matter of semantics. At that point in time they definitely were questioning if he was a bust or not. Just type in "eli manning a bust" into Google and you will get plenty of results. He's proven people wrong now but after his third year what I reported that I heard is correct information
