We had a very good O line 2007-2009 then it collapsed starting in 2010
it was not until 2014 we got really good again and for those three years we were one of the best in the NFL

Guyton and beebee literally have never played an nfl snap…Hoffman and bass we have no clue what they are. Zack Martin and upside go together like mayonnaise and tomato sauce

Zach as long as he is healthy is still one of the very best Guards in the NFL. His ability to deal with injuries is not what it was when he was younger as this year showed; plus as you get older the nagging little ones matter more. Tyler was a legit All Pro guard last year. Now he is not as good a LT as of yet so it is going to be an interesting decision by the boys on where he plays. I have no confidence that Hoffman is more than a backup at center. Bass I think is better and might be good enough. Guyton is not ready to start at LT but since he played RT he could replace Steele if he has not returned to form. Beebe is being penciled in by the media at Center but he has never played a game there so that is pushing it. so anyone claiming this is a top OL right now is full of crap

IMO, a significant amount of the issue with the O line last year was coaching and scheme. From what I can tell, that isn't changing. I do believe that if you had a Callahan or something coaching this group they would be among the league's best but that simply isn't the case.

I'll repeat, when those defensive linemen came in unblocked and took out Pollard in the backfield, that wasn't a blown assignment or missed block. That was the play. The most frequent run play had 2 o linemen pulling into a gap and leaving the DE unblocked.

This OL Is Shaping Up To Be The Best Since The 90's.Cowboys. Madden Would Be Proud.. "Boom"

Projected 2024 offensive line now looks like this: Tyler Guyton at left tackle, Tyler Smith at left guard, Cooper "The Keg" Beebe at center, Zack Martin at right guard and Terence Steele at right tackle. That's a front five that has as much upside as any in the entire NFL Going Forward..

This has Jimmy Johnson Written All Over It..

Great Wall of Dallas" line of the early-to-mid '90s as the most dominant in franchise history. The 1995 Super Bowl front boasted Hall of Fame guard Larry Allen, left tackle Mark Tuinei, guard Nate Newton and center Ray Donaldson.

Definitely, a lot of potential, but it doesn't always pan out.

If they do pan out, it could be interesting even after Martin retires. Bass showed potential at guard and the late-round tackle we got, Nathan Thomas, might be more of a solid guard option.

In a couple of years, our line could be Guyton-Smith-Beebe-Thomas-Steele. Of course, it also could be Smith-Bass-Beebe-Thomas-Guyton, depending on if Steele gets back to form or if we decide to move on from him because we save cap space by cutting him (2026).

I’m excited about Guyton and Beebe. I think the future can be bright on the OL with those two and Tyler smith who is still very young.


But slow your roll playa. The rookies haven’t even put on a cowboys helmet yet.

Whoaaaaa......hold your horses buckaroo..... let them run at least one play before we start declaring them great, pouring anointing oil on them and giving them a nickname. Heck even THE GREAT WALL OF DALLAS never had a nickname during their playing days, that probably was given to them by the producers of that particular show. And they did deserve it by the play on the field and the Super Bowls, not just some desperate attempt for attention. Anyway, just my two pesos.

I didn’t see your post but said something similar 3 hours later

Watch Cooper Beebe vs Texas. You will have no concerns about arm length or anchor. If he can play center between Z Martin and TSmith you have an Oline center trio with brute power not seen since 1995 - Newton Donaldson LAllen

Not even close. Penciling in two rookies as all pros is laughable. Enjoy your hype train.
