I know we are all bored so if you want, do a little research, and predict the starting 22 three seasons from now.
As always, try to be realistic. This is 4 seasons, 3 off-seasons, from now.

Use wikipiedia to figure out current Cowboys players' ages (example: Romo will be 35 heading into the 2015 season)
Use http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings for potential draftees from the next 3 drafts.
Use rotoworld to see which NFL players will be free agents and when Cowboy players' salaries expire.

I know Bob didn't like this last year but since when have we cared what Bob thinks about anything. I'll post mine later.

*Feel free to move us to a 4-3 if you think that's a direction we could be headed.

Impossibru.

This isn't a bet, there's no winners. It's like a mock draft. Predict who you still want to see here in 3 years and what free agents and draftees you'd like to see the Cowbys add.

For example, you might want to add Justin Hunter.

All I know is, in four years, only these current Cowboys will still be starting:

Sean Lee, DeMarcus Ware, Tyron Smith, Maurice Claiborn, Brandon Carr, Dez Bryant, and Miles Austin.

I'm not draft guruishenough to predict who replaces them. If there's a database of injured or injury prone college players, it might help.

2015? If Jerry's still in control (very likely), it will be 25 years and counting since our last championship.

LOLB: AJ Johnson Age 22 - 2015 1st round pick from Tennessee

All Tennessee is recruiting is three star atheletes. Not for nothing, but I highly doubt a player of that pedigree, especially under Tennessee's questionable coaching staff, develops into a first round talent.
