A lot of it will come down to how Dez handles success.

Anybody remember David Boston -- the WR from the Cardinals? His first 3 years looked a lot like Dez's first 3 years in the league culiinating in his 3rd season him busting out for 98 catches for 1598 yards -- ProBowl, All-Pro, all the accolades, etc. From that point on he became a giantantic head-case, had a huge posse, etc and it was all downhill from there. He couldn't handle success. He was out of the league two years later.

I think the Cowboys will help make sure Dez remains grounded during the next phase of his career -- or I sure hope so.

One thing to think about, that I dont think Ive seen anywhere, is who is going to throw the ball to Dez after Tony retires. Unless something crazy happens, Dez will be here long after Tony. If he's in a situation like Larry Fitz has been in, it might be really tough for him to get to the HoF, especially if he doesnt win more than 1 Super Bowl.
