Dallas Cowboys: Will this blinking light pay off in 2020?

The Dallas Cowboys drafted offensive lineman Connor McGovern as a value pick in 2019. Will he be able to make an impact after a rookie season lost to injury?

The sudden retirement of center Travis Frederick in March could potentially sink what was once the most dominate positional group in the NFL, the offensive line of the Dallas Cowboys. Although the presence of Joe Looney, the man who replace Frederick for all 16 games in 2018, offers the team a true safety net, missing a three-time All-Pro at such a stabilizing position as center will certainly ding the O-line.
