Beebe played a lot for Kansas State over the last few seasons, gaining valuable experience. Now he is in the 2024 NFL Draft.
As a three-star recruit in the class of 2019, Beebe decided to stay in state to play for the Wildcats. He played in two games in 2019, redshirting that season. Beebe made eight starts in 2020, but Kansas State struggled with just four wins. In 2021, Beebe started at left tackle earning All-Big 12 First Team honors. His play helped the Wildcats win eight games. For 2022, Beebe moved to left guard and impressed. He was named First Team All-American by several publications and Kansas State won 10 games. Beebe returned for the 2023 season, moving back to left tackle and was an All-Big 12 First-Team selection. Kansas State had another solid season with nine wins.
Following the season, Beebe decided to declare for the 2024 NFL Draft. He is currently projected to be a day-two pick.
Cooper Beebe Strengths
Beebe has great length for an interior offensive lineman. At 6-foot-4 and 335 pounds, he is one of the bigger interior linemen in the class. With his size comes good strength. That will help him battle with some of the big defensive linemen on the other side of the ball.
His strength is best utilized as a run blocker. He can control his matchups early on in the rep and then he uses his strength to move defenders out of the way, clearing big holes in the process. Making blocks in space is sometimes tough, but when he gets his hands on a second-level defender, he rarely lets the defender disengage.
He has plenty of good experience and at a few different positions on the offensive line. This experience has helped him gain unique awareness. He is able to see where pressure is coming from and react to it. Beebe can pass off stunts and twists, picking up the right man in the process. He is ready to play from day one.
Cooper Beebe Weaknesses
Beebe has average length for an interior lineman, which has given him troubles. He can struggle against defenders who have longer arms than him. Focusing on his hand usage and power can help neutralize defenders, but it makes it harder to consistently win his matchups.
His athleticism isn’t going to be near the top of the class. Beebe can struggle to make blocks in space, as defenders can evade him. He also struggles at times when he is on an island in pass protections and his flexibility leaves some to be desired. This is a reason why a move to the inside full-time is projected, as he is way better in a phone booth.
When he struggles to get in position to make his block, Beebe can lunge and get off balance. This makes the problem worse. He needs to focus on his footwork and stay balanced in order to execute more of his blocks.

How can he have great length for an interior lineman as a strength but average length for an interior lineman as a weakness? Do you even read what you write? LOL
Some valid observations in here but just pointing out that you seem to contradict yourself with some of it.
Do better
