Offensive Tackle/Offensive Guard/Center

Tyron Smith/Cameron Fleming/La’el Collins/(FA Pickup)/Travis Frederick/Joe Looney/Zack Martin/Connor Williams/Damien Mama

This is where we will see our first unknown player come into the mix as I am certain the Dallas Cowboys will look to the second wave of free agency to land a backup offensive tackle. Chaz Green is awful which is unfortunate but true. He got pushed around in preseason by the 49ers reserves and after the Atlanta game last season it appears he has been on borrowed time for a while.

Marcus Martin will likely hit IR as he tore a tendon in his toe. Tyron Smith and La’el Collins are locks and at this time Cameron Fleming will likely be the primary backup. He has been the best of the depth players at tackle and remains a steady and serviceable tackle.

The center combination is set as Travis Frederick looks to be in mid-season form. Joe Looney will be his primary backup and could see some action at the tackle or guard position if forced into the role. Zack Martin is another lock as he has been one of the best offensive linemen in the NFL in recent memory.

Connor Williams will take a starting role at guard and is the Dallas Cowboys second round selection. He had a first round grade and is expected to plug the hole at the guard position. Damien Mama should comprise the depth here but I also have a feeling that the team will be looking for quality depth in the second wave of free agency.
