Yes, with the political will (clearly still lacking) there's a lot which could and is needs to be done to control non EU migration and the abuses of it. The virtually unfettered right of EU citizens to travel and work anywhere they choose (including any of the countless thousands of migrants who'll sooner or later be given citizenship of other EU states) was and still is a major issue, just not the only one. Non EU migration was irrelevant to the Brexit debate but it's certainly just as big a problem to those of us who believe that we ought to be able to control both the number and nature of people allowed to come, work, reside and remain in the UK.
