Re: 2024 Offensive Line

Having competent Center play has made a world of difference.

Jayden Daniel's lightning quick release makes their job easier also. Seriously may be the fastest release I've ever seen. Heard Marino's was crazy fast also, but he was before my time.

I always felt the OL was not as bad as everyone believed and I too believe the center change was key. Words can not describe how bad our C and LG were last season, I saw that as a huge upgrade and we already knew the RG was really good.

I knew Lucas was adequate at LT, didn't see this from Coleman and other than Jayden Coleman he has been the biggest contributer of this rookie class. If they did in fact find their future LT in the 3rd round that would be huge for the rebuild as they won't have to go into the draft desperate to fill the position.

Really looking forward to the next 5+ years with AP in charge, our second rounders haven't really popped yet but this years draft class is looking so good.

I thought during the offseason that even if Daniels busts they draft so well they could overcome it. I mean what other team can spend so much on a player like Trey Lance, get nothing in return, and remain title contenders?

AP is the most important part of the puzzle, it's not even close.

I'm with you on that note.

Obviously needed an upgrade at Center & LG, but EB's horrid scheme and SH's tendency to hold the ball way too long were the main culprits that made the O-line look so bad at times.

Hoping Coleman works out. Early returns seem promising.

It has confused me why Dallas opted to go with a 3rd round rookie to start at centre over the experienced guy they knew. That move is at the heart of both offences this season.

This is the result of paying so much cap space to a few players. They had to make moves like this. Dak's contract will really hurt them.

Jerrah should fire his GM but he won't because he is his own GM.

Correct. He also thinks he's the best in the world at it. Jimmy Johnson not Jones was the primary architect of talent acquisition for the run in the 90s. Jerry's ego got in the way and Johnson left. Still think Dallas may have won more SBs during that time if Johnson stayed.
