So is this front office capable of getting the right pieces in place to get there sooner than later, if at all? I doubt it unless they themselves make internal changes.

I don't think it does.

But they do need to get serious about Free Agents, and bring in some above average ones and take the pressure off of having to hit on to many draft picks in order to improve.

What I have learned about the NFL, it's easier and quicker to build a stout defense with FA's than it is an offense.  On D, if players play the same position in a scheme, it's a fairly fast learning curve. Offense, if it's the OL, then they need time to learn how the guys next to them and behind and behind them play, so takes longer, so it's better to draft those guys and let them grow together.  Of course they still need a vocal leader so might have to find one there to.
