Lack of Tackle Depth!

[CowboysFaninHouston]

We heard about Steele's struggles yesterday in the joint practices, this is nothing new. He is what he is, a good run blocker that is maxed out as a poor pass protector. Doesn't mean that cannot succeed with him as a starter, Doug Free had a similar skill set. Good news is that Guyton appears to be having a strong camp, his biggest concern can he stay healthy?

Also have heard that Bass is getting a lot of snaps with the 1's at LG. This could mean that Tyler Smith might be the team's #3 Tackle if they decide to use their 5 best lineman.

Thomas reportedly has taken a step back this season and Shelton needs to get stronger. Haven't heard much about 2nd year tackle Cornellius.

our tackles are just plain awful....the starters suck. much less the depth

Could see the Cowboys with the 32nd pick next year taking a tackle

I would think that would be our best option if something were to happen to Steele. Guyton is more familiar with right tackle than he is with left tackle. Some act like if you can play one, then it is easy to play the other, but it's a lot like learning to do something right-handed then suddenly switching to doing it left-handed.

Think it would be smart to add a veteran if there is one out there

I think Tyler Smith alot of RT. I actually think it would be his best position. He could be dominant in both phases. Wont happen though

Really think drafting a high tackle is in the plans next year

We have opted for veteran depth at swing tackle the past few years, so I would think if we see that Thomas, Shelton and Cornelius can't get the job done, we'd go that direction. It won't be a starter like everyone wants, but some veteran backup. Someone like George Fant maybe.

Sure. If the Packers win the Super Bowl.

I really feel that the Cowboys will regret failing to add capable OT backups for their O-line. What we now have available isn't likely to succeed in the event of any injuries there. Let's be prepared. This team isn't yet ready to challenge for Super Bowl contention in the season ahead. Close won't do.

It’s not good, but it’s definitely not the worst,
Let’s hope defense can really help us out this season
It’ll be interesting

Good God, they only had the second best offense in the league last year. It’s crazy that we have Clickbait posters in the zone.

The hyperbole is strong with this one.

Either that or it's gas.
