Traditional football philosophy says it all starts with the offensive line, with the construction of that powerful foundation perhaps being the key to building a championship roster. Tyler Smith, for example, has proven himself to be in rare company: just the third guard ever to earn three Pro Bowls before age 24. But if there’s a way to make the front five better overall, it’s worth discussing. Cowboys great Flozell Adams (himself a five-time Pro Bowler) believes the team should move Smith to left tackle, relocate Tyler Guyton to right tackle, and move Tyler Booker to left guard.
That’s the kind of hypothetical tinkering that runs rampant this time of year. Running back is another popular topic in today’s roundup of headlines. While Malik Davis, Jaydon Blue, and Phil Mafah are the current combatants for the RB2 spot, there’s also support among the fanbase to go get a veteran… like Nick Chubb, perhaps? On the defense, we’re looking ahead to what a healthy DeMarvion Overshown will bring to the revamped unit… and we’re wondering if Markquese Bell even still has a place on it, especially given the legal trouble he got himself into back in April.
All that, plus 45,000 man-hours will go into laying real grass at the Cowboys’ home stadium for FIFA; CeeDee Lamb wants to know why it can’t stay in place after the World Cup. Brian Schottenheimer is house-shopping to move closer to The Star, and Dak Prescott makes waves with his plus-one at a recent event in town.
The league is holding its quarterly meeting this week in Orlando, and there are some notable topics on the agenda. Nashville is expected to be granted a Super Bowl to help christen the Titans’ shiny new venue, and Minneapolis may be hosting the draft soon. And the Bears are expected to address the league on their stadium options… which reportedly do not include the city of Chicago at all.
Elsewhere in the league, we’re guessing at the Madden 27 cover, the NFL plans the launch of its professional flag league, and Urban Meyer losing a court ruling means the Jaguars franchise saves a cool $30 million.
