The Dallas Cowboys used a first round pick on an offensive lineman twice in the last three years and it’s possible they could make it three in four years. Yes, the defensive line is the biggest area of concern, but the Cowboys can’t let an elite guard or tackle slip past if they’re the top player on their board. The top o-linemen in this class are Auburn’s Greg Robinson, Texas A&M’s Jake Matthews and Michigan’s Taylor Lewan. All three should be gone by the time the Cowboys are on the clock. But SportsDay’s Jon Machota has 10 offensive linemen that could be available for the Cowboys throughout the first few rounds.
Zack Martin, OT, Notre Dame/ Doug Free could be a free agent at the end of the 2014 season. Draft Martin in May and the Cowboys could have a bookend to pair with Tyron Smith for a long time.
Morgan Moses, OT, Virginia/ A solid starter for UVA over the last three seasons. The 6-6, 325-pound right tackle as seen his stock rise into the first round.
Cyrus Kouandjio, OT, Alabama/ Another elite tackle option. One of the top rated prospects coming out of high school, Kouandjio has been Alabama’s full-time starter at left tackle the last two seasons.
Ja’Wuan James, OT, Tennessee/ If you want experience, this is your guy. James has started a school record 49 games at Tennessee. He is projected to play right tackle in the NFL.
Antonio Richardson, OT, Tennessee/ He played left tackle for the Vols but might be better suited for the right side in the NFL. Richardson has started all 24 games over the last two seasons.
Jack Mewhort, OT, Ohio State/ He has played guard and tackle in college but projects to be a right tackle in the NFL. Mewhort played in 49 consecutive games for Ohio State, starting the final 39.
Seantrel Henderson, OT, Miami. He could be a steal in the second or third round. Henderson’s stock has slipped since telling teams at the Senior Bowl that his suspensions at Miami were because of marijuana use.
Gabe Jackson, OG, Mississippi State/ He’s considered by some to be the top offensive guard available in the draft. Jackson could quickly upgrade one of the interior line spots for the Cowboys.
Zack Martin, OT, Notre Dame/ Doug Free could be a free agent at the end of the 2014 season. Draft Martin in May and the Cowboys could have a bookend to pair with Tyron Smith for a long time.
