Jared Allen is a HOFer.
Tamba Hali is a Chiefs HOFer.

How many of that era of players( Charles, Hali, Flowers, Albert etc. ) can we attribute to Herm? Seems like the philosophy changed somewhat upon his arrival, and I'm not referring to the "youth movement" of Herm vs. Vermiel's preference of veterans, I'm recalling that we began to score pretty well on large sweeps across the draft board, top to bottom.
IMO, Carl should have left with Marty. They came in as a team, and should have left as one. Both were clearly past their expiration dates as Chiefs personnel. Had Carl not lingered, he could have possibly rejuvinated his career as Marty did briefly with San Diego.
