the Dallas Cowboys ultimately wound up a beached whale. There's a list of reasons they couldn't seem to get their act together,womens Mason Crosby Jersey,In a season that was predicted to be the continuation of a historic 2016, not everything can or should be excused away. This brings the team into an offseason filled with a laundry list of questions surrounding both the roster and their front office,>womens Donte Moncrief Jersey, and although some regression could be justified considering absences of key players on both sides of the ball, and while the upper crust of the latter may appear safe for now -- another disappointing season will prove that to be untrue.,womens David Bakhtiari Jersey

Let's take a look at the those within the Cowboys' organization whose seat is hot enough to roast marshmallows in 2018.

The debate regarding if Dez Bryant is still an elite receiver or not has reached fever pitch.Authentic Jack Mewhort Jersey,'

mixing big plays with backbreaking drops and turnovers. To be fair,The All-Pro wideout has been a shell of himself this season, continually. Bryant needs to minimize his number of drops on the catches he usually hauls in, it's not fully accountable to Bryant -- considering the chemistry between him and Dak Prescott has been severely lacking, but Prescott must do better with providing him throws he can actually grab.Authentic Mason Crosby Jersey,,

Bryant did himself no favors in the Week 16 must-have game versus the Seattle Seahawks wherein he demanded the ball only to fumble itThat said,Authentic Corey Linsley Jersey, and Bryant also had a key drop earlier in the contest. His numbers are down across the board,womens Nick Perry Jersey, and then later create a tip-drill interception. The Seahawks went on to score 14 points on those two turnovers,womens Morgan Burnett Jerseywith the exception of his 11 drops having led the NFL this past season.

Something has to be said for the production-to-pay variant on Bryant, as he's slated to hit the Cowboys' salary cap for a massive $16.5M in 2018 -- putting his head (or salary) in the proverbial guillotine this offseason. Don't expect the Cowboys to make any rash decisions like cutting their franchise leader in touchdown receptions before they fix their scheme issues offensively and give it another go at tuning the aforementioned lack of chemistry with Prescott,womens Jack Mewhort Jersey particularly without a replacement for Bryant on the current roster. The more likely resolution is a restructured deal that may or may not include a pay cut, or as I pointed out in early January:

An extension.Authentic Nick Perry Jersey,

Even with the latter, the seat beneath Bryant doesn't go ice cold. The team could still structure themselves on a new deal to have an out after 2019, giving them time to locate a future replacement now and have him groomed for a possible release on Bryant later -- should their All-Pro never return to form.'Authentic Morgan Burnett Jersey,

but his health is of major concern.,There's some fuel left in the tank for Orlando Scandrickwomens Corey Linsley Jersey

The veteran cornerback missed a total of five games in 2017 due to injury, Authentic David Bakhtiari Jersey.bringing his combined total to 13 regular season games missed since returning from a torn ACL and MCL he suffered in 2015 -- wherein he missed the entire season altogether. That means Scandrick has been on the field only 19 games out of the previous 48, which raises serious question marks about the durability of a player who will also be 32 years old when the 2018 season kicks off.womens Davante Adams Jersey.
