Everybody wants an "impact high level" player in this draft. No 1st round pick from Herm's time fits that.
Tank and Turk were the suck. Yes, yes they were and are. Pollard is average to less than average. Let's call him average with a shit attitude.There is a reason the Texan's gave him another 1 year contract. It's not because he is awesome.
Croyle is very talented? At what? Throwing hard and and rehabbing?
DJ is a huge disappointment. And it's not this coaching staffs fault he cant put together a ****ing complete mistake free game in 4 years. He started for 3 straight years and never lived up to the hype.
I don't see Herm being a draft genius.

DJ has nothing to do with Herm, that was a Vermiel pick. Turk sucked, I never disputed that. Tank doesn't. He's not a superstar, but he is a rotation-level player. There's value in that.
You're creating a false dichotomy with Herm much like you've done with Tyler.
It's not 'genius' or 'dunce' - there's a lot of room in between. Herm's draft, when compared to his peers (or Scott Pioli, for that matter), fall decidedly in the middle.
Though ultimately your argument that Pollard had a 'shit' attitude colors your entire argument. There was no indication, absolutely none at all, that Pollard was ever a bad guy in the lockerroom or on the field. He was a football rat that loved to hit guys. He had a coach that told him to go out there and decapitate guys.
Then he got frustrated in Mini-camp and the Chiefs used that as their excuse to cut him.
1 incident when he got pissed at a coordinator because he was frustrated while learning a completely new coverage package means he has a 'shit attitude'?
Just because that's what Scotty and his boys told you, that doesn't make it so. Pollard had a great attitude during his time in KC.
