Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Wrap beets tightly in foil and roast in middle of oven 1 to 1 1/2 hrs, or possibly till tender. Unwrap beets carefully and cold till they can be handled.
Throw away stems and peel beets. Beets may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Cut each beet into 8 wedges and cover.
To make vinaigrette:In a blender blend together mustard, vinegar, tarragon, salt, and pepper.
With motor running add in oil in a stream and blend till emulsified.
Vinaigrette may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
Make herbed goat cheese:In a bowl stir together bread crumbs, tarragon, salt and pepper. Cut each cheese round in half crosswise. Coat each piece of cheese proportionately with crumb mix, pressing gently, and transfer to a baking sheet. Goat cheese may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered loosely. Let cheese come to room temperature before proceeding.
Preheat broiler. Broil goat cheese about 2 inches form heat till crumbs are lightly browned, about 2 min. In a bowl, toss watercress and onion with half of vinaigrette. Arrange watercress mix, beets, and goat cheese on 8 salad plates and drizzle remaining vinaigrette over beets.
