02Scheme fit
Ideal system

He is an ideal fit for an inside zone scheme that prioritizes athletic offensive linemen capable of reaching and cutting off defenders in space.

CenterInterior OLZone Scheme C
Best role

Year 1 starter at center, with rare physical traits and high football IQ to anchor the offensive line for years to come.

Wrong fit

His athleticism might be underutilized in a power/gap scheme where his footwork and agility are not fully exploited.

Frederick projects as an immediate starter and Pro Bowl caliber center with the intelligence and physical tools to excel in a zone blocking scheme.

04The evaluation

Selected #31 overall in Round 1 of the 2013 NFL Draft by Dallas Cowboys out of Wisconsin.
