He probably feels like ‘if you don’t buy into my plans then leave.’ After all what kind of message does that send to the rest of the team to see Tony basically say ‘this is going to take too long so I want out.’ And Herm probably knows that no matter how professional you are if you don’t buy into what management (coaches) is doing then you are not as likely to give it your all. This is just human nature, I do think that Tony will feel like he is giving it his all but his heart will not really be into it.

Again, management needs to change first. It’s like CBaller pointed out awhile ago, being able to draft talent doesn’t mean a hell of a lot if you can’t draft talent that fits together. And the Chiefs haven’t given any indication that the pieces they’ve brought in will fit together well enough to make this a good football team. And that’s on management and coaching…so until those things change we can have all the “good” drafts we want but we’ll still be spinning our wheels.
