I lived in eagles country for a while as well. You what you think is obsession is derision. You apparently have no idea the Cowboys have as their peer group teams like the Jets and Lions - aka the jokes of the league, where as the Eagles like it or not are the only professionally run franchise in the division, and the results for the last 25 years bear that out.
You sound like the kind of person (delusions of grandeur) that would get along great with Jerry.
Forcing each person in a given position group into a role to which they are not suited is another way of saying 'dropoff'.
Our division opponents have 6 of the first 19 picks. Claiming we have done anything but move backwards is absurd theater.:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/23349187/Moves_So_Far.png)
As it stands offensive line is the biggest position of need for the Cowboys and the best answer for that might in fact come during next month’s draft. This week we launched a series on the Blogging The Boys YouTube Channel (make sure to subscribe which you can do right here) called ‘Mock Draft Monday’ (a name that nobody has ever used before!) where we run through mock drafts to figure out options that would work well for the Cowboys.
When Dallas was on the clock we were fortunate enough to be sitting in a spot where Tyler Linderbaum, Kenyon Green, and Zion Johnson were all there. Obviously this was just one exercise and one of many ways that things could play out a few weeks from now, but seeing a world where Dallas has options should make us all feel better about the glaring need at left guard at the moment.
It is possible that the Cowboys do still look to add a veteran to their offensive front in line with how they tend to approach free agency in general. The initial waves of the acquisition period are over, but that doesn’t mean that they won’t find someone like they did Ty Nsekhe last year (although that was a bit earlier in the process than now).
If history is any indication the Cowboys will add an offensive lineman at some point before the draft. Time will tell.

I'm with you more than most on RB as an immediate need....but folks probably realize that player won't get any time over Elliott and Pollard anyway.
You sound like the kind of person that’s an Eagle fan trolling.
Nope. It’s the natural progression that every team makes when they lose a player at a specific position for whatever reason (trade, cut, retirement, etc.). Younger players (and less expensive) are generally expected to move up the roster and replace players. It’s just how it works.
Oh, do they? The Eagles are the only professionally run team in the division?!? Hilarious delusion. DESPITE the lack of SBs in the last 26 years, Dallas has a much larger fanbase, much more worth as a franchise, better ratings, more coverage, more Lombardi’s, more playoff wins, a better stadium and nickname, and they lead by a wide margin in head to head matchups with Philly, not to mention sweeping both games last year, each by three TDs. Those are indisputable facts, and you can debate it all day, and just look stupid. So go ahead, prove me right by arguing.
Yep, and I trust Quinn’s judgement FAR MORE than all the deadly serious armchair GM’s who pout because they can’t brag at the water cooler whenever they need an ego boost.
There biggest need...was to get BETTER. They have not done that. There OL got worse. There WR corps got worse. There DL got worse. The TE, LB, CB, RB, QB stayed the same...and those same players just lost a home playoff game that was not close and they struggled against good teams last year. So miss me with them addressing there "needs". They filled vacant roster spots...that's what they've done. Bobby Wagner would be a real difference maker that would allow us to be flexible with Parsons. THAT would be a signal that they want to go further than they did last year.
