Mike retires as Bengals President and gives Katie the opportunity to freely run the franchise.
Hire an experienced/respected football person (from outside the organization) to be a true GM.
Take a chance in free agency (when needed) as far as signing a top tier player now and then.
I completely agree with bringing in a respected GM from outside the organization. As to free agency, while it would be amazing to see them take a chance on top talent, even if they approached free agency with the mindset of improving each year. All of that would be a big step forward.
