Cowboys' Cooper Beebe an 'Overlooked Rookie'?

As the Dallas Cowboys prepare for their season opener against the Cleveland Browns, two rookie names have emerged as key players on the offensive line: Cooper Beebe and Tyler Guyton . These young talents were never overlooked by Cowboys Country fans who watched their rise to starting positions despite Beebe being highlighted as an "overlooked rookie" by NFL Analyst Bucky Brooks on NFL.com.

As we reported all preseason, the rise of Cooper Beebe and Tyler Guyton to starting roles on the Cowboys' offensive line has been one of the standout stories of this offseason. From the 'All in' discussions around the team's commitment to its talent to the 'Dark Spiderman' debates that sparked conversations among fans and media alike, it has been an offseason full of intrigue for the Cowboys and their supporters.

Beebe, a third-round pick, made an immediate impact by seamlessly transitioning from guard to center. His preseason performance earned him a starting role, with Pro Football Focus (PFF) noting his strong overall grades and zero pressures allowed in his first start at center, demonstrating his readiness to protect Dak Prescott and fortify the line.

Similarly, Tyler Guyton , the first-round pick, has been a standout, quickly rising to the top of the rookie tackle class. With high grades across the board and minimal pressures allowed, Guyton's preseason showed he’s ready to handle NFL-level competition and create opportunities for both the passing and rushing game.

With Beebe and Guyton stepping into their roles, the Cowboys have bolstered their line with young talent, ensuring strong protection for Prescott and adding firepower to their ground game. As Dallas prepares for its season opener against the Cleveland Browns, the spotlight will be on these two rookies to see if they can continue their ascent and solidify themselves as mainstays in the lineup.

Both rookies will be tested immediately as they face the Cleveland Browns’ formidable defense, led by reigning Defensive Player of the Year, Myles Garrett. The Browns, known for their aggressive defensive schemes, will challenge Guyton and Beebe to maintain their preseason form and solidify their roles on the Cowboys' line.

With veterans like Zack Martin, Tyler Smith, and Terence Steele surrounding them, Beebe and Guyton are set to be integral parts of the Cowboys' offensive plans, particularly in executing their "bully ball" strategy aimed at dominating both the run and pass games. With the two earning starting roles, I think it's safe to say the Cowboys didn't 'Overlook' Beebe or Guyton either.
