Any Ideas for a BOLD move that could set the Bengals up for Greater Success ?

Tailor the schemes on both sides on the ball to the talents of the players. This means getting under center more (not mostly just more) and moving away from spread concepts and let the linemen block downhill. Defensively if the speedy youth can't execute the scheme install something they CAN execute.

Then...

Sign Chris Jones AND go DT in Round 1 - double down on DT to truly fix it. And get a power back who breaks tackles (someone like Estime perhaps). Tag and trade Tee I guess.

Tailoring the scheme to player strengths one thing.  Trying to cover up the inadequacy of bad players while moving away from the things your best players do well is something else.

Sign a 3 tech in Jones and then draft a 3 tech in Newton(the only DT with a 1st round grade)?  Ok.
