It comes as no surprise that the Dallas Cowboys offensive line in 2020 was one of the weakest units on the field for the team. A once-historically great unit become one of liability when the tackle position was decimated due to injury.
Those injuries saw the likes of Tyron Smith (who played two games) and La’el Collins (who played zero) miss significant time last season. It prompted the Cowboys to use multiple lineups throughout the season and even saw right guard Zack Martin move over to tackle.
Stephen Jones: Tyron Smith, La’el Collins and Zack Martin will be ‘as good as we’ve seen them in a long time’
Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones joined the G-Bag Nation on 105.3 The Fan [KRLD-FM] recently to talk about the upcoming NFL draft and more. Here are some of the highlights.
How appealing are guys that were tackles in college, but could play guard in the NFL, if you have the right guy available at 10 there? Do you guys factor in Tyron Smith’s health, and is La’el Collins going to be back all the way and consider kind of doubling down on the strength of the team there?
Stephen Jones: “Well, I’ll start with the fact that we believe that both Tyron and La’el and Zack [Martin] are going to come into this season as good as we’ve seen them in a long time. I mean, they are healthy, they’re over their injuries, we feel very optimistic. You know what they can do. And you know, it’s a huge plus that they’ve really done amazing after they had their injuries, they rehabbed from them, and we felt like they’re ready to roll and not only are we gonna have a great year, this year, but several years to come. So that’s a huge plus. But at the end of the day, obviously, we had as much success as anyone taking a left tackle in college and, and make them an all pro guard in Zack Martin, and certainly Connor Williams has done a nice job for us. But certainly those left tackles in college, depending on their length and how you feel about him can get down in there and become very special as a guard at our level.”
