And I feel like I&#8217;ve learned something,&#8221; Guyton said. &#8220;I&#8217;ve gotten stronger, I&#8217;ve gotten better at football, learning more techniques and things like that. It&#8217;s just a learning process and I&#8217;m going to continue to try to advance for this next season.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Guyton was pushing to return at the end of last season, but ultimately said wasn&#8217;t healthy enough to come back on the field. This offseason though, he is healthy, and it&#8217;s allowed him to be aggressive in his approach to prepare for an important third season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s been good,&#8221; Guyton said of his work going into the offseason. &#8220;It&#8217;s my second time around going through an offseason, so I feel like I was able to attack the things that I needed to be better. I had a good offseason.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s the biggest thing that Guyton has been looking to improve going into year three?<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My strength,&#8221; Guyton said. &#8220;I feel like that&#8217;s one of the biggest models of offensive linemen, and something I need to work on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To help with strength, among other things, former Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith has been a frequent visitor to the Star in Frisco, and was even in the building on Thursday. Guyton sees Smith&#8217;s information as invaluable for himself and the position room.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s been a big help for us as offensive linemen,&#8221; Guyton said of Smith. &#8220;His presence in our room and on the field with us is incredible. There&#8217;s not really much that you can&#8217;t learn from a guy like Tyron Smith. He knows everything about football, especially the left tackle position.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Having played the left tackle position himself at a high level, Smith has passed down knowledge to Guyton, and posture paired with strength is something Guyton is looking to copy from Smith&#8217;s game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;His posture is something that I really am trying to take from him,&#8221; Guyton said. &#8220;He tells me that my posture is going to be where my money is at. Posture on contact is everything. If you don&#8217;t have good posture, you&#8217;re not going to win the play.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The next Cowboys&#8217; OTAs practice will be on June 8, with two practices after that on June 9 and 11 before mandatory minicamp from June 16-18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;I feel like coming into the league, I had a lot to learn.
