Many had pegged Biadasz as a late day two guy, and the speculation was that the Rimington award winner fell because of medical questions.
Players last longer than expected on the board for many reasons. Center Tyler Biadasz had shoulder surgery after the season and had a hip procedure before the 2019 season. He never missed a game at Wisconsin but there were medical concerns with him.

There were no questions, however, about his production during his time in Madison.

The Cowboys are excited to bring in a high-upside center who will look to continue the Wisconsin tradition at that position in Dallas.
