15. Zack Martin
Martin has yet to miss a start in his three-year career, getting two first-team All-Pro nods and three Pro Bowl trips along the way. Our experts ranked Martin as the league's top offensive lineman, and the Cowboys would like to sign the 26-year-old to a long-term deal this summer. — Todd Archer
19. Tyron Smith
Smith is entering his seventh season but amazingly he is still just 26. He has missed just four games in his career, though three of those came last season as he battled back and knee issues. With long arms and quick feet, Smith has solidified his standing as one of the NFL's best left tackles. — Todd Archer
20. Ezekiel Elliott
Elliott rushed for 1,631 yards as a rookie, 318 more than the next-closest back. He accounted for 102 first downs, second to the Cardinals' David Johnson, including a league-high 91 rushing. His full value will be seen during his six-game suspension (pending appeal) to start the season. — Todd Archer
24. Travis Frederick
Frederick, who has not given up a sack since 2014, is considered the best center in the game by most folks in the league, an opinion our panel shares. He helps make the calls up front, can get to the second level as a run-blocker and holds up well in pass protection. — Todd Archer
62. Dez Bryant
Injuries have forced Bryant to miss 10 combined games the past two seasons, but his ability to convert targets into touchdowns is a great equalizer. He has 67 scores in 97 games, which already ranks second in team history to Hall of Famer Bob Hayes. — Todd Archer
77. Dak Prescott
Prescott had a magical rookie season, setting or tying 19 team records. He had four interceptions on the season, going his first 176 attempts without a pick, which is the most to start a career. With Ezekiel Elliott suspended to start the season, there will be plenty of pressure on Prescott to be even better. — Todd Archer
81. Sean Lee
In the past two seasons, Lee has been named to the Pro Bowl and was a first-team All-Pro pick in 2016. Since 2010, Lee and Luke Kuechly have the most interceptions by linebackers in the NFL with 12. Lee's career-high 93 solo tackles last season ranked 10th among defenders league-wide. — Todd Archer
