4. Offensive Tackle Depth Is A Major Problem

We knew that offensive tackle depth would be a concern heading into this season, but after watching the performance given by some of these tackles fighting for a roster spot, the Cowboys need to start looking for outside help.

At certain points, it felt as though it didn’t matter who was out there. They weren’t doing anything to slow down pass rushers on their way to the quarterback. Just like the backup quarterback roster spot, the Cowboys can’t just sit back and wait to make a move, they need to make one now.

We don’t want to see another 2020 Dallas Cowboys season where the quarterbacks were running for their lives most of the game. This front office can no longer just sit and wait for players to fall into their lap. They need to start being aggressive and making moves to improve the roster instead of entering bidding wars for players that get cut later.
