I agree about the OL, but the question is how do they rebuild it? They way I look at it, they need upgrades at LT, RG, and RT. They can solve two problems with one move I think. For example, they can draft a LT, especially if they draft high, and move Guyton to RT. It is a chance but maybe Guyton plays better at RT.

or, they can draft the best C in the draft, maybe even in round 2, and move Beebe to RG. Leave Guyton and Steele.

or, they can draft a RG and leave everyone else.

I would love to see them give Asim Richards some games to play and see how he does. He replaced Guyton against the Eagles and I thought he played a decent game. Maybe Richards is the LT and Guyton goes to the right side.

They still have Bass and Hoffman to take over for Martin. They also drafted Nathon Thomas last year.

I guess what I am suggesting is they have a lot of youth on the OL, maybe we give it another year to gel.

I think they higher priority is DL. Odighizuwa is the only decent DT they have and he is a free agent after this season. If the Cowboys are drafting top 10 they will have a shot at the top DT in the draft but I don't think there is any chance Jerry takes a DT. Not drafting that high. They also need DE, especially if DLaw is gone. I predict this is the pick he will make - a DE. But if it is the right guy, it could greatly improve the defense in a year or two.

Lets say we get a top 3 pick. Will Jerry go qb and let him set for 4 years since we signed Prescott?

I have a bad feeling JJ will seriously consider Kellen Moore as a legit HC candidate. Ugh.
I'm not so sure Moore would come. Now that Sirianni has gotten out of his way after the bye, he gets to play with a top o-line, two legit weapons at WR, an elite RB, a QB that can run and throw a nice deep ball to receivers that can get open and fight contested balls, and when healthy, a very underrated TE. Heck, I'd just sit back, collect my few million and be happy with my toy.

JJ will fire MM and we will hopefully be picking in the top 5 or at least top 10 in April.

Loads of money invested in Dak and Lamb, so they won’t be going anywhere and will have to be the focal point pf the rebuild to have any success— so what innovative offensive mind can get the best ROI?

I would prefer someone from the Shanahan coaching tree that will bring a solid running scheme to Dallas as Dak will never be successful without one.

Defense? I am good with giving Al Harris the reins actually. The players know and love him. He is a hot candidate and will likely leave Dallas in 2025 unless given the DC job. I say let him cook and see what he can do with Parsons, Diggs, and Bland and get him some young talent via the draft.

As far as the draft, best case we pick high and can trade back with a QB desperate team and gain a nice bevy of draft picks in return. I know many will advocate taking a QB there ourselves, but IMO, this is not a great QB draft, and JJ will screw it up, so take a guy in the mid rounds to develop behind Dak for a year or two.

We clearly need to rebuild the trenches. What college prospects excite you guys the most? We also have a glaring hole at RB and need WRs that can actually run a damn route.

I won’t even mention FA as we won’t be spending much and will instead likely be trimming old contracts and aging players from the roster which is the right thing to do

I realize there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Just dreaming on a Wed morning in Nov amidst a hellacious lost season lol

Good solid well thought out post . The thing
about Al Harris I like him too but I would give a new HC his choice on his staff . If the new HC likes Harris fine with me on a DC promotion. .

The Draft should be D heavy I’ve said that all along with a RB taken preferably no later then round 3 where you give the O a HR threat juice which would help the passing game by loosening up opposing D .

Offer Dowdle a contract , he is the perfect complement to drafted home run threat .

The Cowboys in the coming draft should scout DT EDGE and MLB .

Jerry can't fire McCarthy.

McCarthy's contract ends and he will just walk away like Garrett did.

Garrett “ walked away “ when he wasn’t offered a contract . He hung around days after the season ended hoping for a new contract .
