Position: Center, #72 Weight/Height: 320 lbs, 6'4" Birthday: 3/18/91 Alma Mater: University of Wisconsin Hometown: Walworth, WIAfter trading down to get the 31st (from 18th) and 74th overall picks in the PRO BOWLS 2013 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys invested in the foundation of the offensive line for years to come when they selected center Travis Frederick in the first round. As a rookie, Frederick earned the starting nod at center in training camp and became the first rookie to start a game at center for Dallas since Al Johnson in 2004 and the first rookie center to start a season opener for the Cowboys since Andre Gurode in 2002. He went on to start all 16 games - the first rookie center in club history to accomplish the feat - and continued to improve as the season continued. Frederick was a key piece to the line in his second season as he started all 16 games, earning his first Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors. He centered an offense that had the league's leading rusher (DeMarco Murray - 1,845 yards), receiving touchdowns leader (Dez Bryant - 16) and the most efficient passer (Tony Romo - 69.9 completion percentage and 113.2 quarterback rating). He then made his second straight trip to the Pro Bowl following the 2015 season, starting all 16 games in front of another 1,000-yard rusher in Darren McFadden. In 2016 Frederick was part of an offensive line that was named Built Ford Tough Offensive Line of the Year and led the way for the league's leading rusher (Ezekiel Elliott, 1,631 yards) and the NFL's second-ranked rushing attack. En route to his third straight Pro Bowl selection, Frederick & Co. also helped rookie quarterback Dak Prescott establish league rookie records for quarterback rating (104.9) and completion percentage (67.8). Behind the line, Prescott became the second player, first rookie, with 3,500-plus pass yards and less than five interceptions (Tom Brady, 2010 and 2016).Through his collegiate and prep career, Frederick earned starts at both center and guard while at Wisconsin and playing offensive and defensive tackle while at Big Foot High School in Walworth, Wisc.
