Projecting the Cowboys' Starting Offense After the NFL Draft

The 2020 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and by all accounts, the Dallas Cowboys came away as one of the biggest winners. Among other notable picks, the addition of Oklahoma wide receiver CeeDee Lamb sticks out in that it will make an already elite offensive that much more difficult to defend.

Let's embark on a position-by-position breakdown of Dallas' starting offense for next season following the selection of Lamb and the entire draft as a whole.

Quarterback: Dak Prescott

The heavily-delayed contract negotiations will not have an impact on Prescott's future outlook as Dallas' starting quarterback. The 26-year-old racked up 4,902 yards and 30 touchdowns last season.

Running Back: Ezekiel Elliott

Elliott didn't perform as well as he would've liked following his contract holdout, but he still produced 1,357 yards and 12 touchdowns on 4.5 yards per carry last season. The Pro Bowl running back will look to replicate similar success in 2020.

Wide Receiver: Amari Cooper

Cooper was incredibly productive in 2019 for a player that was battling lingering injuries for much of the year. After agreeing to a long-term contract, the 25-year-old is locked in as the Cowboys' No.1 wide receiver for the foreseeable future.

Wide Receiver: Michael Gallup

Can we put some respect on Gallup's name? The Colorado State product is the most overlooked 60-plus reception, 1,100-yard second-year WR in recent memory.

Wide Receiver: CeeDee Lamb

Adding another athlete of Lamb's caliber to Dallas' offense just seems unfair. Expect the No. 17 overall pick to dazzle as a rookie, even if his stats don't pop off the screen.

Tight End: Blake Jarwin

Perhaps the only position that could change in terms of projected starters is tight end. Jarwin is an exceptional athlete, but he's never been relied upon as a full-time starter. Don't be surprised if the Cowboys add a veteran before the start of camp.

Left Tackle: Tyron Smith

Smith has had trouble avoiding injuries in recent seasons, but he's still one of the NFL's most imposing offensive linemen. Big things should be expected from the seven-time Pro Bowler in 2020.

Left Guard: Connor Williams

Williams was shining as a sophomore in 2019, but a torn ACL suffered in late November ended his season. Assuming he's made a full recovery, the 22-year-old will be tasked with a significant role next season. They'll need him to step up following the retirement of Travis Frederick.

Center: Joe Looney

Dallas will feel the effects of Frederick's shocking retirement, but the team does have an adequate replacement at the ready in Looney.

Right Guard: Zack Martin

Let's keep this simple. There aren't many offensive linemen in the league better and more consistent than Martin, who's made the Pro Bowl each year since entering the league in 2014.

Right Tackle: La'el Collins

Collins is easily the most underrated component of the Cowboys' dominant offensive line. The LSU product has played 96.3% of the offensive snaps across the last three seasons.
