But it set up a much better situation in 2009 than you give it credit for. Terrific draft position and $57M to spend. That didn't happen by accident.

If your best argument for Herm is that he left the team in good shape in 2009, then using your logic does Fat Scott deserve the same credit for how he left the Chiefs in 2013? Six Pro Bowl players, flexibility in cap space, etc.?
The Chiefs went 11-5 and to the playoffs with the roster Fat Scott left... the Chiefs went 4-12 with the roster Herm left.
