Cowboys rookie Tyler Booker was named to the @PFWAwriters' All-Rookie team on Tuesday. He's the first for Dallas since Tyler Smith in 2022.

Among all rookie OL with at least 500 pass blocking snaps, Booker finished third in pressure rate (5.9%) and allowed the lowest pressures (17) and second-lowest sacks (1.5) when left 1-on-1.
 
He's a bad man and he has some nastiness to him. Between Smith, Beebe and Booker the center of the O-line is strong. Allowing Prescott to step up in the pocket instead of being flushed out wide. His days of out running pursuit are over. Yes I know, he was never a speedster :)

Congrats Tyler :thumbup:

Great draft pick. Will be a force for the Cowboys for a looooong time.

so what?
 
Yes I was gonna say it’s the defense that is the issue in the draft which makes sense when you keep having a new coach every year.
It's also an issue when you continually value athleticism over productivity.
We all want the super athletic, juiced up speedy defensive player who understands the game and is instinctual, but those are the super blue chippers.

Give me the slower S, or the shorter LB or CB, or the DE with shorter arms who has actually been the most productive in college making plays week in and week out. Give me that guy over the CB who runs a 4.3 but can't find the ball or the LB that looks like Adonis but can't read the plays or a DE who is 6'6" and 275 who runs a record 20 yard dash but only had 5 sacks last season.

Draft the better athlete when all other things are even, but most of the time, just draft the dang football player who makes plays every week.
 
The rook was our best lineman. Yes even better than Tyler Smith. Booker had some rough outings this year but grew each week. You could see his development and trajectory. Smith needs a bounce back year in 2026. As good as he is, he can be so much better.
