I agree with this sentiment.  In fact I really don't think an EVP is necessary, selecting a good/elite GM IS.  I think Khan needs to find (pay for) the best GM selection committee he possibly can.  Were it me, I would try to hire on someone like Mike Shanahan to lead that committee.  You need someone with some insider contacts to select a GM that can control a savvy scouting crew, has a clear vision on what type of football team he wants to build, can wheel and deal effectively in the draft and FA, and doesn't let his ego get in the way of working side-by-side with his head coach.

I agree with the bolded part.  I don't want an EVP.  Didn't we learn the lesson from Coughlin?  When things went bad, Coughlin pointed the finger at Caldwell, while Caldwell pointed the finger at Coughlin.  Khan had no clue who to blame.  The result is that Coughlin became the fall guy and we got stuck with Caldwell for another disastrous year.  I want a clear line of responsibility.  Let's hire the best qualified GM, let him pick the HC, and then hold them responsible for results.
