After three consecutive 12-5 seasons, the team finished a disappointing 7-10. As a result, the Cowboys parted ways with head coach\u00a0Mike McCarthy\u00a0and promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to take his place.<\/p>\n<p>One of the primary concerns for the Cowboys was their lack of a strong run game. Starting running back Rico Dowdle ended the season with 1,079 rushing yards, but this total was significantly boosted by an impressive performance in the final six games, during which he rushed for 591 yards. The problem is that Dowdle is now a free agent, and after him, the next-highest rushing total on the team was just 226 yards.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\" data-zone-count=\"2\">\n<div class=\"not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d m-in-content-ad is-loaded\">\n<div id=\"ad-in_content-4fe205ef518544aea2b54b20831c5d6e\" data-google-query-id=\"CJ3tq8v-4IsDFenzTAIdTH0zEQ\" data-ad-size=\"300x250\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/88059007\/athlonsports.com\/college\/north-carolina-tar-heels_2__container__\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/88059007\/athlonsports.com\/college\/north-carolina-tar-heels_2\" tabindex=\"0\" title=\"3rd party ad content\" src=\"https:\/\/9e103eba950036945777bd242e8fb8eb.safeframe.googlesyndication.com\/safeframe\/1-0-41\/html\/container.html\" name=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" data-is-safeframe=\"true\" aria-label=\"Advertisement\" data-google-container-id=\"3\" data-load-complete=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>In his latest NFL mock draft, ESPN draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. aims to help the Cowboys address their concerns with their first-round pick.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"l-inline tml-image m-detail--tml-image--inline\"><a><picture class=\"is-loaded\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.webp 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.webp 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.webp 700w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.jpg 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.jpg 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"m-detail--tml-image m-image\" src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cg_xy_center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620%2Cx_1288%2Cy_509\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.jpg\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"Omarion Hampton\" width=\"2738\" height=\"1825\" data-src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA4OTIzNDU4MjEyNDcyNjc2\/usatsi_24107104.jpg\" \/><\/picture><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--tml-image-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"m-detail--tml-image-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption>\n<p class=\"tml-image--caption\">North Carolina Tar Heels running back Omarion Hampton (28).<\/p>\n<p class=\"tml-image--attribution\">\u00a9 Matt Krohn-USA TODAY Sports<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve talked to people in the NFL who have Jeanty and Hampton neck and neck for RB1, and there are even some who prefer Hampton,&#8221; Kiper wrote. &#8220;And I look at Dallas&#8217; decision to hire Brian Schottenheimer as coach and can&#8217;t help but think about his father, Marty, and all those run-heavy offenses he had over 21 seasons in the same job for four different teams.
