10. Guard & Center
CURRENT: Zack Martin, Travis Frederick, La’el Collins, Jonathan Cooper, Joe Looney
The Cowboys are all but set with three starters and two veteran backups. They can easily come out of this draft without adding any interior offensive line talent, relying on their current lesser-knowns and the undrafted pool to field enough guys for the offseason.
That said, the idea that La’el Collins could be moved out to right tackle has been floated by the Cowboys front office. They want him at guard but may have to consider it if nobody emerges from the trio of Byron Bell, Emmett Cleary, and Chaz Green to become Doug Free’s replacement.
In that scenario Dallas would hope that Cooper, a former first-round pick, could step into the starting LG spot. However, having a decent rookie talent in the mix wouldn’t be bad for competition, or if nothing else an upgrade depth option.
