It is the quietest time of the NFL year. OTAs and minicamp are done. Now we wait for the start of training camp. The Dallas Cowboys will convene in Oxnard late next month. That is when the real evaluation of the roster begins as pads will finally come on and the team will play its three preseason games.
Most of the roster is already set, but this year seems to have more uncertainty about some key backup jobs than usual. Those will be where we see the most interesting camp battles. This year, one that may be wide open is for backup tackle.
