But Guyton has battled injuries (most recently an ankle) and his grip on a starting job seems to be slipping. Beebe did hold down his job but is out for Week 15.<\/p>\n<p>And of course Martin had ankle surgery and may be done in the\u00a0NFL\u00a0at age 34.<\/p>\n<p>So the Cowboys need a body and they found a big one they know well in Braeden Daniels, a\u00a06-4, 300-pound fourth-round pick of the Commanders in 2023. He&#8217;s bounced around in his brief NFL time, the Utah product having spent time with the Texans, Chargers and Eagles this year, too.<\/p>\n<p>Daniels is a local kid, from Hebron High School &#8230; just a stone&#8217;s throw away from The Star here in Frisco. He&#8217;s worth a look not only given the situation but maybe too due to his pedigree.<\/p>\n<p>From\u00a0NFL.com&#8217;s\u00a0pre-draft scouting report:\u00a0\u201cActive, athletic offensive lineman offering room for development at guard or tackle. Daniels is an impactful down blocker with the quickness to handle zone-blocking duties.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\" data-zone-count=\"2\">\n<div class=\"not-size-a not-size-b not-size-c m-in-content-ad is-placeholder\">\n<div id=\"ad-in_content-fde97a3fbce3467ba867ae44724b0ad0\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>The site called him &#8220;tenacious,&#8221; which seems like a starting point, anyway.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"m-video mm-video--landscape l-inline\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"wCyPQ0J3olw\" class=\"m-video--frame\" title=\"#DallasCowboys Fish LIVE: Top 10 Takes on Your BONEHEADED 'BOYS ... postgame show\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/wCyPQ0J3olw?enablejsapi=1\" width=\"598\" height=\"336\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Dallas is at 5-8 and plays at 3-10 Carolina on Sunday &#8230; among the things we discuss in the Fish Report here!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cowboys top NFL Draft picks linemen Tyler Guyton and Cooper Beebe are battling injuries.
