Name that one player drafted, or signed, or traded for while he was HC that made us a better team...

Haley didn't want Tyson Jackson. He didn't want Matt CasseLLLL. And I hardly see how this is a knock on Haley. It's a knock on PioLLLLLi that he should have expected Haley to win on a team that refused to spend money and wasted top picks on PioLLLLLi's pet players. Why would you blame bringing in talent when we've been told Pioli micromanaged most player decisions.
As for how he improved players... forced Albert to lose weight and learn technique, got Bowe so dedicated he started working out with Fitzgerald in his off-time, asked Hali to shed pounds and become a dominant force at OLB. There is a laundry list of players who improved under his watch. What players regressed besides CasseLLLL? Nobody can seem to answer that question.
