It is possible you will be met by someone in DFW at the end of the jetty, with a list of all those connecting and an express connections pass, or a hotel booking if you're not going to make it. If you have checked baggage, a lot depends if BA gives you an ITI label at LHR, which then gets your bag through checked to CUN, DFW, MIA and ATL allows for this. If you don't get ITI and you are late arriving then in the absence of other factors I would book your own hotel and then when you get there, call BA to get rebooked the next day. There isn't much point in moving seats, by having checked baggage you have slowed yourself down far more than proximity to a particular aircraft door. If this is a frequent thing you do then you best get GE if you are eligible.
