Not really concerned with how AK feels about the HC selection, to be perfectly honest. He can go ahead and bounce if he wants out; he's far from irreplaceable.
That's kind of where I am too. He's going to be 30 this year which is usually the age of decline for RBs. There is no need to make a player like that happy when you're planning for the next 3 to 5 to 10 years out.
