Cowboys just signaled their $82 million star is drifting toward the bench

The Dallas Cowboys' roster isn't good enough to contend with the NFC's elite. However, some of the personnel decisions made by Brian Schottenheimer and Matt Eberflus have not helped the cause.

Between it taking eight games for Eberflus to start Donovan Ezeiruaku, and Schottenheimer scheming plays for KaVontae Turpin instead of Ryan Flournoy, Cowboys fans are hopeful that the bye week served as a wake-up call for Dallas' defensive and offensive play-callers.

Monday night's game against the Raiders will tell us all we need to know in that regard. In the meantime, Schottenheimer has confirmed that one of the Cowboys' most expensive players, $82.
