This is an absolutely good pick for the Cowboys.
One of Beebe’s few weak points is his arm length, but it’s less of an issue for an interior lineman, which is his role, and speaking of roles, he brings the flexibility to play all five positions along the offensive line. in Dallas, although he should be the one to hand the ball off to All-Pro quarterback Dak Prescott.
But, for reference, he recorded eight starts at right tackle in 2020 and 13 starts at left tackle in 2021, before being moved inside and racking up even more national and conference honors.
It’s a testament to how incredibly athletic and talented Beebe is, who plays with explosive power that would pair well with Tyler Smith and Zack Martin, and his anchor doesn’t move easily and often doesn’t move at all. As noted, he doesn’t lack experience as a starter, and he also has the demeanor to lead with the football IQ to quickly diagnose defensive sets and have success against them.
It just doesn’t allow pressure through the middle.
If you’re wondering why he was available at the 73rd overall pick, that was mentioned above (arm length), and while his anchor is concrete when planted, he’ll need to improve his lateral ability.
Overall, Beebe is a stellar pick and acquiring him in the third round is incredible value considering many had projected him as a late second round pick.
