And while Herm doesn't deserve 100% credit for draft picks made during that era, he definitely deserves some. Coaches are very involved with the personnel process. Especially given that Kuharich and Herm were mostly on the same page.
Haley's a far better coach. But I've said for years and years that Herm got a lot of shit he didn't deserve, but that he was easily the best guy to start the process of turning this team around.

Herm was the best guy to turn this around because he was possibly the only coach who could **** up so badly he could get Carl fired AND land us multiple top 10 picks. So in that regard... yeah. Sometimes you gotta hit rock bottom to start climbing back up and Herm was the perfect coach to put us at rock bottom.
