The Dallas Cowboys are hoping for a seismic leap in their offensive line performance with the drafting of Tyler Booker, a guard from Alabama. Although his athletic profile raises eyebrows—he scored a dismal 3.93 on the Relative Athletic Score, considerably lower than the Cowboys' typical first-round picks—Booker is seen as a potential leader who could elevate his less experienced teammates through his work ethic and discipline.

Booker, characterized as a "force multiplier," is expected to instill a culture of hard work among his fellow linemen, particularly Tyler Guyton, who faced discipline issues in his rookie season. With seasoned veterans like Tyron Smith and Zack Martin departing, the Cowboys aim to build a new ethos on the offensive line. Coach Brian Schottenheimer believes Booker's attitude can inspire a better overall performance from the group.
