You alway look at everything during the off-season, but the Dallas Cowboys just won on the road with an OL mainly consisting of back-ups.

The team went 3-0 this season when Tyron Smith was out due to injury/coaching decision. They were 1-2 in 2017 with the victory in the finale coming against a cast consisting mainly of Eagles' reserves and the two,losses were UGLY.

Cam Fleming isn't great, but is a massive upgrade form Chaz Green and Byron Bell.

Zack Martin missed the game, too. Travis Frederick missed the entire season. Xavier Su'a-Filo left with an ankle injury not believed to be too serious.

Adam Redmond played LG, Joe Looney has been admirable all season in the pivot and rookie Connor Williams handled RG with Martin getting a rest day to heal up for the playoffs.

Here's what the group will currently look like for next season:

Starters
LT Tyron Smith (28/29 Dec)
LG Connor Williams (21/22 May)
C Travis Frederick (27/28 March)
RG Zack Martin (28/29 Nov)
RT La'el Collins (25/26 July)

Reserves
C/G Joe Looney (28/29 Aug) - game day reserve
G Xavier Su'a-Filo (27/28 Jan) - inactive for games if makes cut
C/G Parker Ehinger (25/26 Dec 30th) - inactive for games if make cut
C/G Adam Redmond (25/26 May) - inactive for games if makes cut
G Dustin Stanton (24/25 Feb) - likely just training camp body
OT Jake Campos (24/25 Oct) - currently on Practice Squad, likely camp body if returns
G Cody Wichmann (26/27 March) - currently on Practice Squad, likely camp body if returns
G Oni Omile (25/26 June) - currently on Practice Squad, likely camp body if returns

Free agents
ST Cameron Fleming - Isn't pretty but I'll pay to keep him unless the cost gets outrageous
G Marcus Martin - Could be a good player if he ever gets in shape

Draft
I'd love to draft an OT to develop who might start out as an inactive 4th before ascending to swing tackle in a few years. RT La'el Collins will be a free agent in 2020, so team might look for a replacement to develop here for a year if they are thinking about letting LC walk .

Not much need to spend a pick on interior OL, but a diamond might be there at some point worth grabbing.
