The Dallas Cowboys have some exciting, young talent on the roster right now.
The 2024 season didn't go as planned, but Dallas should be significantly better in 2025. The Cowboys will have Dak Prescott back, had a great 2025 NFL Draft, and also just added young playmaker George Pickens.
These are the things around the Cowboys that have gotten the most buzz, but Pro Football Focus' Jonathon Macri actually called 23-year-old center Cooper Beebe the team's biggest "breakout candidate."
"Dallas Cowboys: C Cooper Beebe," Macri said. "The Cowboys have been rebuilding the offensive line through the NFL Draft, and Beebe has already started to show signs of promise after one year as a starter. Beebe finished the regular season ranked 13th in PFF grade (65.4) among centers with at least 578 blocking snaps. Beebe’s strength was as a run blocker in Year 1, though there’s reason to believe that he can become a much better pass-blocker as well, which was his best attribute coming out of college, providing hope that he’ll continue to progress in Year 2."

The Cowboys took Beebe in the third round of the 2024 National Football League Draft and he started 16 games for the team. Dallas' offensive line has been its calling card for years and Beebe is in line to be a big piece of it for years to come. The Cowboys clearly have high hopes for him and early returns already have been solid.
