A GM wouldn't change the fact that the team won't do the following (using this year as an example)

1.  Sign a competent/good RT in free agency.
2.  Sign a competent/good RG in free agency.

Every year there are clear holes on the team that they refuse to address.  The year before it was LT, C, RG.

Actually I think a real GM would do wonders for this team. A GM has to know football talent and when Mike Brown buts his nose into player selection all sorts of messes result. When Mike Brown refuses colossal trade offers and refuse them despite the fact the real football people want the trade badly.

Mike Brown has a history of desperate moves, something a real GM is less likely to do.

But I do see you point in that Mike will never but out and leave football to real football people, including contracts. Mike Brown fancies himself as a football person, but only God knows why. He certainly didn't inherit any skill or knowledge in the area.
