But, things evolve and organizations can change philosophy over time. 

Granted it's been nearly 30 years of sustained failure for the Bengals under the current model.  The hope is that with new coaches, influencers etc that the team can switch into a different direction and school of thought. 

Mike is getting older, and he will relinquish control.   I just dont want to be too late; before the Bengals move out of Cincinnati. 

Only building through the draft is not a way to compete.  It. Does. Not. Work.

Realize that you are preaching to the choir when it comes to the team needing to do more outside the draft. Look at the Free Agent section, listed at the top of Jungle Noise and scroll down to Feb and Mar during the free agent period.

And, judging from these New coaches and influencers (whatever the hell that means) the team did remarkably little in free agency. If you are expecting them to influence the team to look for top flight free agents, then I think you already have your answer on that.
