The Facts:
Some in the Cowboys organization have spent this offseason on eggshells thinking about what more could happen with their star-crossed dynamo, Bryant. But owner Jerry Jones says that he's not among them. "I think that Dez does have accountability right now, not only within himself, but also to his teammates. And at the end of the day, those two constituencies, Dez himself as well as his teammates, are the ones that are gonna make the biggest difference in his life. So he's in the right area for the right type of influence, and I think that will have a positive impact."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to NFL Network insider Albert Breer, The team had a belief when drafting Bryant that he would put enough stock in his dream -- of becoming a Cowboy -- coming true that it would prevent him from veering off course. He's already had his missteps. But Jones thinks now that the buy-in from the team this offseason (they've had some of the highest participation numbers in the NFL for their player-run workouts) will create a good kind of peer pressure on Bryant, and that will add to his will to make it.
