Seven years ago, the Dallas Cowboys traded down in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft and selected Wisconsin center, Travis Frederick. That proved to be the right move for America’s Team as Frederick would earn five Pro Bowl selections and three All-Pro nods.
Unfortunately, Frederick would retire earlier this year after missing the entire 2018 season due to an autoimmune disease. Yet, there was little panic following the news as reserve center Joe Looney stepped in to started all 16-games in his absence.
Yet, Looney is only on a one-year deal, so the future of the position is up in the air.
