The Cowboys have picked up the fifth-year option on guard Tyler Smith for 2026. Since he has been selected to two Pro Bowls, that cost is $23.4 million.

Please don't bust. That's all I got.

Same song and dance the year when this guy was drafted. Just saying. They were talking on Fan today how much of a leader of the O line he was in Alabama. Zach is gone that line needs a leader. I am ok with this pick now we get a WR next. Although could be a RB since Shotty wants to commit to running the ball.

USA Today: If it’s massive running lanes you want, you got it. B

Standing at a girthy, listed 6-foot-5, 321 pounds, Booker is a mammoth of a man. He spent his Saturdays with the Crimson Tide steamrolling defensive tackles at the point of attack and linebackers at the second level. He practically screams, “Dallas Cowboys,” and how they’ve typically tried to construct their offensive lines over the years. It is so unsurprising that they’re now adding him to an already formidable (and young!) interior featuring center Cooper Beebe and left guard Tyler Smith.

what else do they know?

JJ tells them what to like, they like it.

Mediocre city baby!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, Just because you cant do it, doesnt mean others cant.

Some of us know how this works, others wait for other people to tell them what to think.

Lol man our fan base hears all these people say WR WR WR RB and don't realize the depth there. Meanwhile Dallas takes the BEST Guard in the draft to literally fill a need because we do NOT have 1. Then cries cries cries. Still so much we can do at RB and WR not at G

What about when your defense sucks?

We’re getting that fixed too

We’re getting that fixed too

No one is trading in this draft. There has only been 1

Ok there it is, there were some trade ups as it got down in lower rounds , and some earlier too,
like cleveland traded down a little, giants traded up later.
I think shotty wanted this guy specifically.

The Cowboys coaches have been talking about having a violent and physical identity and Booker gives them that up front. This pick shouldn't be a surprise. I like it

yeah but it was that he was a guard that is surprising.
DT, OT, Edge , could see all those.
I am ok with booker if they get a better RB too.

How does that feel now

He could be the next Zack Martin.

A first ballot HOFer.

Winner of 4 Wild Card games when all is said and done.

Great Guards mean nothing without QBs.

True, but he will outlast Dak and hopefully the Cowboys will get a good QB to replace him.

I'd say

7-10 teams do 7-10 things.

1-16 posters say 1-16 things...like drafting a QB at 12 who is still undrafted through 85 picks.

Hate on it if you want. But this offensive line just got better. He's a bully. Middle of that OL is mean.

Looked kinda goofy when he got off the vehicle at The Star. Almost AALLITL.
