Offensive line is a big concern for the Cowboys in 2024 and it comes with many pieces to the puzzle. Left tackle and center are positions that will feature new starters and the solution is yet to be seen. There’s some key draft prospects to watch and Michigan Pro Day will be an opportunity for Dallas to see plenty of talent.
Right tackle Terence Steele took a step back after his contract extension, and his return to form would lead to a breath of relief. With the questions up front, NFL Wire’s mock draft has the Cowboys dropping out of the first round and finding options on Day 2 and 3.
