Im starting to favor a walk in starter on the OL with our first round pick

Everything is going to be fine on the o-line and the offense. You will see the next few games.

We should always take BPA in the 1st and it will always fill a need. We thought we were loaded after drafting Parsons and Cox, signing Neal at LB and now it’s a top need.

2nd to 4th round you can find good LBs and Cox is a player.

I do like guard or center from picks 25 - 32 if it is BPA. If it’s a safety, LB or DT just as good.

We may be without Lawrence next year due to his contract and might have to draft DE or move Parsons there making LB most important.

If we can trade our 3rds to 5ths for starting caliber players that want to move from their previous team, especially on o-line like other teams have done the last couple years I like that option to fill our o-line. They’re worth paying for the o-line like we have in the past.
 
If you’re drafting a replacement fo Williams because you don’t see an option in house then go for it. There are going to be a lot of really good players available when we are up to draft.
 
Tackle = absolutely needs to be in the cards early. Tyron's body is failing him and La'El isn't far behind. Terrence Steele can probably cover 1 tackle spot but we need another. Very high need.

Guard... Martin is a rock and McGovern is average. I don't see C-Will returning, not after we benched him. I think this is a low priority need, but I wouldn't be against taking the right guy.

Center... Biadasz is OK and the Cowboys are clearly confident in him. I don't think you are going to find a better center without using a premium pick. Very low priority need, in that you would have to sink a top-50 kind of pick for an upgrade at a low value position.
 
If the board plays out and a linemen is best available then yes it’s a need . Jaxson Kirkland out of Washington probably could start and pass block at LT or Charles Cross out of Miss St another OT might be a fit .

What injury did Josh Ball suffer preseason that has him redshirting his rookie year when it’s juggling tackles time on a weekly basis . I would think Dallas would want some talent evaluation going on prior to the next draft about Ball, this is a 17 game marathon .
 
Out of the 21 draft Ball Farniok Joseph And Wright have contributed little . About half the class.
 
I don't know his ceiling, but he is in the Pro Bowl right now haha. How high are you willing to go for a OC? The defense needs a whole new LB group, another DE, NT and a Safety. A 1st round pick on a position where there's an adequate starter seems wasteful.
What makes Biadaz more adequate than Justin Hamilton? Seriously. And safety and DE dont have adequate starters?
 
And I want to just draft the best players.

Most fans will never understand the draft. They want to bastidize it for the current state of the team.
You wouldve drafted Pitts over Parsons but trying to lecture people. Lol

Biadaz is starting player who's still developing, next year he should get better. 1st round of the draft you want an impact player, and DE is an impact position...plus just like Safety there will be UFAs walking out the door.

Starting doesnt make you good. Hes the same caliber player as Hamilton. And if it was up to some of you Zach martin nor Frederick would have been drafted.

Whoa... I was all for drafting Martin. As far as, this Biadaz n Hamilton thing that's your opinion cool, but I prefer to keep Biadiaz at OC and draft another guy at a impact position. You don't need 5 high draft picks on OL...defense needs some players too.

You see our run game lately?

You have certainly changed my opinion. The Cowboys were forced to draft the best player available in the last two drafts with Parsons and CeeDee. Even if it’s a quarterback that falls to our pick in the 20s we need to take the best player. We can upgrade every position honestly.

I think we’ll see some natural improvement with Biadasz next season. That said, I think his ceiling is low. He’s not a guy when looking at the roster would say “skip that position, he’s got it locked down.”

I get that. But, do we want 1st round picks at every OL position? Can we have some more resources go to defense. Let's have some balance.

I see a hurt RB and a struggling QB. Did you see the run game earlier this season? It can work w/ Biadiaz because it has. I say give the man 1 more season because personally I like another defensive draft before re-tooling the offense. I get your point though.

This…he isn’t the problem.

I like Tyler. The OL has regressed bc McGovern is worse than Williams and we’ve been battling injuries outside. Doesn’t help Zeke has been banged up and is on the decline.

If we want to fix the run game get rid of Zekes monster contract and hope an OT/LG falls.
 
We really have to be open to all options. I think BPA available is the best way to go.
 
That was what I wanted for this year's draft. But I'm more than happy with how our top pick has worked out though. He was exactly what our defense needed.
 
Biadazz is only in his 2nd season, and rarely played last year...he's playing better recently. Why waste a pick at OC. OG will be backing up McGovern or Martin.

OT is the way to go because Tyron will miss games and LC is LC. Draft a OT let him learn and get ready.
He’s been terrible. His blocking is really weak.
