Cowboys RB Plan: Draft Longhorns Bijan Robinson, Don’t Re-Sign Tony Pollard?- Riley Sheppard, Fan Nation

The long run of the Cowboys’ running back room must be clarified in not up to a month.

Long-time back Ezekiel Elliott has been lower. Tony Pollard has signed his one-year contract. And this can be a deep NFL draft for running backs, beginning with Texas famous person Bijan Robinson, with B/R becoming a member of in the refrain in its latest NFL Mock Draft by projecting Bijan to the ‘Boys.

They write: “Head coach Mike McCarthy made it clear this offseason that he wants to make the Cowboys a run-first offense, even more so than they have been already … Robinson … perfectly fits into the team’s ideology.”

Actually, regardless that – and CowboysSI.com is sitting proper there with McCarthy as he’s detailing his supervision of a transformation to his West Coast Offense, it’s no longer about “run first.’’ It’s about “run extra.’’

What it may not be about is “pay extra,’’ alternatively.

With Pro Bowl back Pollard set to make $10.9 million below the franchise tag this season, the Cowboys may simply sit down on that, with out bothering to barter an extension. And why no longer?

Because if Dallas drafts a celeb runner – Robinson or any person else – the new child can take over below the phrases of a rookie contract that prices a fragment of what Pollard would possibly command.

WILL THE COWBOYS OFFENSIVE LINE EXCEL NEXT YEAR?- Tony Stahl, Inside The Star

The Cowboys needed to shift round a bit of on the offensive line final yr with harm, how will they perfrom this yr?

TYLER BIADASZ:

The Cowboy’s Center has been beautiful just right over the years. The snaps are at all times on course, Biadasz at all times blocks neatly, and he has just right ability with box consciousness.

I’d say Tyler Biadasz is an excellent participant and deserved his spot on the box. Next season must be any other nice yr with him and no alternate must be achieved to that place.

ZACK MARTIN:

Mr. Martin will probably be enjoying proper guard subsequent season and is able to pass. One grievance about his participant is his box consciousness stage. I incessantly see Martin taking a look round the backfield, figuring out who to dam.

Martin will wish to paintings on discovering his man to dam and sticking with him.

He is a brilliant participant, however some paintings will want tp be achieved to guarantee that the line will grasp towards the defense.

4 Dallas Cowboys who won’t make the 53-man roster in 2023 – Randy Gurzi, The Landry Hat

Hope isn’t misplaced for those 4 names, however it isn’t taking a look just right.

3. Takk McKinley, EDGE

There was once a time when Takk McKinley would were a great addition to the Cowboys roster. A former first-round pick out in 2017, he was once decided on through the Atlanta Falcons who moved as much as get in entrance of Dallas.

At the time, the Cowboys have been in pursuit of a defensive finish and wound up settling for Taco Charlton, and everyone knows how that labored out. McKinley was once higher than Charlton early however that didn’t final lengthy.

He had 13 sacks in the first two seasons of his profession however has simply seven since then and has been with 5 groups since being waived in 2020. He’s best noticed the box for 2 of the ones groups, enjoying sparingly in Cleveland in 2021 ahead of spending 4 video games with the Rams to begin final season.

McKinley discovered his method back to Dan Quinn as he joined the Dallas apply squad to near out the yr and was once introduced back for the 2023 marketing campaign. However, any probability he needed to make it into the rotation this season necessarily went out the window when Dante Fowler, Jr. re-signed on a one-year deal.

Clark Phillips was a top prospect before 2023, is he a Cowboys fit?- Mike Crum, CowboysWire

Dallas may not be achieved addressing their CB corps, so control Clark Phillips right through the draft.

Strengths

Dallas fanatics are accustomed to Phillips III’s most sensible energy, being a ball hawk, as a result of they’ve noticed it with Diggs for the previous 3 seasons. Like Diggs, Phillips III was once a transformed receiver who has been ready to take the ones qualities to protection. He tracks the ball neatly, has an within wisdom on direction combos, and understands what to search for in a receiver’s direction transitions.

He ended his profession with 9 interceptions, 4 of which he took back for a landing. That displays his skill to be a playmaker, with a nearly 50% go back for landing price on all his alternatives.

Phillips III has a “top dog” taste that helps to keep him running at his craft. Whether it’s how he’s first in and final out of the facility, or how he displays up in the greatest moments of the maximum vital video games. Cornerbacks ] the measurement of Phillips III are generally relagated to the slot, however the mentality he has, plus his physicality made him robust sufficient to be an out of doors nook at Utah.

The stats that display why Tyron Smith must be the Cowboys new swing tackle- Dan Rogers, Blogging The Boys

After a protracted and a hit profession, is it time for Tyron Smith to play a distinct position?

While different elements pass into dashing manufacturing and sack totals, we’re no longer going to gloss over the effectiveness of the Tyler Smith/Terence Steele break up. Steele’s presence in the run recreation is simple and one thing we already knew, however the cross coverage “weakness” that supposedly is going together with him isn’t as evident as some would possibly suppose.

The Cowboys could be sensible to stay with the children on the edge as they have already got showcased their skill to play neatly and so they’re best getting higher. These two are the tackles of the long run, so why no longer bypass all this OL shuffling and allow them to construct on what they’re just right at?

Additionally, Tyron’s fragility has restricted his total contribution and it kind of feels extra smart to keep his well being and simply stay him in their back pocket. That’s to not say that they shouldn’t put all 3 on the box at the similar time when it will get right down to crunch time and so they need to have the most powerful total staff, however simply know, they’re rolling the cube each additional snap Tyron performs. So, if it comes right down to which one must be the swing handle, that position must pass to the long run Hall of Famer.
