16. Dallas Cowboys

This should not come as a surprise. The Cowboys lost DeMarcus Ware and Jason Hatcher in free agency, then lost Sean Lee for the year yet again. Now George Selvie and Jeremy Mincey are being counted on to rush the passer, while Justin Durant is projected to man the middle. The secondary is chock-full of disappointments, beginning with former first-rounder Morris Claiborne, major free-agent signee Brandon Carr and Orlando Scandrick, who’ll be suspended to start the year.
