Bruce could hire AJ Smith or Scott McCloughan (or both) and let them make the draft picks and free agency recommendations. Bruce could empower them to do that.

Then Bruce could remain in the position of negotiating contracts. AJ Smith could say hey we need to sign X player and Bruce could handle the negotiations, which has been a strength if you're evaluating him fairly. Look at the DJax contract, no risk, high reward.

So let AJ Smith or Scott McCloughan pick the players, but don't let them pick the price. I think it could work really well.

Exactly. Hiring McCloughan only makes Allen look that much better. Why in the world would he not go for this? Because he wants to be the head chief that picks all the players? This isn't Vinny Cerrato.
