These are, as noted, unofficial and should not be treated with any high level of seriousness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Here is what the Cowboys have offered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">To be honest, there aren\u2019t any real strong takeaways to have. Everything is pretty chalk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Offensively the Cowboys look exactly how they did last year from a starters standpoint. It is mildly interesting that rookie Drew Shelton is listed at backup right tackle, but Nate Thomas is the swing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">On the defensive side of the ball we see the new-look version of the team\u2019s defensive tackles holding court. Donovan Ezeiruaku and Rashan Gary are Christian Parker\u2019s outside linebackers while DeMarvion Overshown is holding things down in the middle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The most interesting takeaway here is probably that Caleb Downs is listed at the nickel spot as well as backing up Jalen Thompson at true safety. Obviously he is going to move around a bit.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">What do you think? What major takeaways do you have?<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Let us know in the comments below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We officially have our first unofficial depth chart of this Dallas Cowboys season.
