TheDallas Cowboyshold their sixth training camp practice out in Oxnard, California. We open these discussion threads for every practice so that theBlogging The Boyscommunity will have a place to congregate and discuss what is going on out at practice.

Unfortunately, dropping a Twitter List into this page no longer functions the way that it used to due to changes that the platform has made. We do have a list we recommend if you want to follow it in another tab. You can access it right here.

In order to keep the flow of things as smooth as possible though we'll be dropping in updates and news items in this thread. Give us your take on them in the comments.

Here we go.

Editor's Note: This post will be updated throughout practice with relevant news, information and highlights. The newest ones will be placed at the top so if you miss practice or want to see/read in chronological order make sure to scroll down to start.

That was close.

For Cowboys fans who like Christian Parker, you should thank game management coordinator Ryan Feder.

Parker was the 9th of 9 zoom interviews. Brian Schottenheimer said they felt good about the 8 and were ready to move on, but Feder encouraged him to talk to Parker.

Voila.

Big O.

Otitio Ogbonnia earning praise from Brian Schottenheimer:
"Maybe the most impressive guy that I wasn't aware of. The guy has size and strength, lower-body power, and the ability to use his hands and destroy blocks. He's very hard to move." pic.twitter.com/GSfYG6KTH5

Christian Paker news.

Brian Schottenheimer said that Christian Parker will most likely experiment being both in the booth and on the sideline during the preseason.

Schottenheimer said in a perfect world, he's on the sideline, but they will do what fits best.
