The Dallas Cowboys kick off training camp on Monday, July 21, as teams around the NFL prepare to enter the final stages of preparation for the upcoming season.<\/p>\n

That means rosters around the league are being analyzed from top to bottom, and everyone is sharing their thoughts on how players and teams stack up against each other.<\/p>\n

Recently, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN shared thoughts from NFL executives, coaches, and scouts about the top interior offensive linemen in the league.<\/p>\n

Cowboys star Tyler Smith, a one-time All-Pro and two-time Pro Bowler who is still only 24 years old, ranked No. 2 on the consensus list, with his highest ranking being at the very top.<\/p>\n

“Most physically gifted guard in the league who could legitimately be a top starter at LT if they wanted to play him there,” an anonymous NFL general manager said. “Strong, athletic, nasty, and cut his holding penalties in half last year.”<\/p>\n

A defensive line coach added, “Best guard in football. Perennial Pro Bowl guy. Quick explosive, violent, strong hands, above-average pass pro, can reach second level.”<\/p>\n

Smith’s talent is undeniable, and he’s a big part of why the Cowboys offensive line could take a step forward this season.<\/p>\n

Pairing Smith with standout second-year center Cooper Beebe and 2025 first-round pick Tyler Booker, a highly-touted mauler, on the inside of the line could wreak havoc on opposing defenses all year. And the Cowboys’ rushing attack would love to see it.<\/p>\n
