Training camp is underway for the Dallas Cowboys in Oxnard, California, as the team looks to have a good 2024 season after an average off-season. Dallas has been under the microscope for the last few months due to their lack of moves in free agency, contract negotiations, etc.
However, the Cowboys made some goodwill with the fanbase after having a solid performance in the 2024 NFL Draft where they addressed multiple positions of need. In the first round, Dallas moved back a few spots and took former Oklahoma Sooners offensive tackle Tyler Guyton, who was viewed as one of the better tackles in the class.
The Cowboys needed to go after the offensive line with their first pick, given that eight-time Pro Bowler Tyron Smith signed with the New York Jets in free agency.
Cowboys left guard Tyler Smith has been impressed with Guyton’s performance in camp, which is great news for fans and the organization.
“I’ve been truly impressed. It’s not very often that you find a human being who measures how he does, 6-7, 330, and has light feet and can just move and just bully dudes,” Smith said via Jon Machota of The Athletic. “When he really becomes confident and gets the playbook down and does all that stuff, the sky is truly is the limit for him and his development.”
