Dredge
Dredge is a static ability that functions only while the card with dredge is in a player’s graveyard. “Dredge N” means “As long as you have at least N cards in your library, if you would draw a card, you may instead mill N cards and return this card from your graveyard to your hand.”
A player with fewer cards in their library than the number required by a dredge ability can’t mill any of them this way.
Rulings
If the target creature card is an illegal target as Cemetery Recruitment tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't draw a card even if the target creature card was a Zombie card.
