  1. There’s a lot of truth in this article from San Antonio, including how Dan even ripped off the defunct AAF team’s hashtag: https://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/article/washington-football-team-san-antonio-commanders-16825872.php?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=mysa_afternoonheadlines&utm_content=news&stn=nf&sid=5936c5f12ddf9c486ef4e673
  2. I was the one who posted the message about Cosmi. Quite frankly, Cosmi’s early success does not surprise me because of his work ethic. That being said, remember that he has only played OT for 3 years - one year at RT, two years at LT. He was a high school tight end and recruited to play OT in college as a pure projection. Fans need to remember his relative inexperience when/if he makes a few mistakes early on. Still, the physical traits and mental toughness are there and I have no doubt that Redskins/WFT fans will come to appreciate him the way they did guys like Lachey and Jansen.
  3. Malapropismic - I can envision Cosmi as a tackle-eligible or TE in certain packages. He’s simply outgrown the TE position to be much of a pass catching threat. If you care to see him catch a TD pass, search for a video of him catching a throw back from Ehlinger vs. West Virgina. You’ll see how agile Cosmi is as he rumbles down the sideline for the score. https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/27775200
  4. University of Texas graduate here. I witnessed every snap of Cosmi’s collegiate career and one thing people don’t talk enough about is how relatively new he is at playing OT. Cosmi was a tight end in high school and is still learning how to play tackle. The Texas staff offered him a scholarship because they saw what NFL scouts see — upside. His development was stunted because he had to navigate through 3 different OL coaches and offensive schemes while at Texas. He also switched from RT to LT his third year. The new Texas OL coach was hired from Alabama and the O-line reportedly improved dramatically over spring practice. As a result, many observers think Cosmi could have been molded into a Top 10 pick if he had returned for another season. That being said, he’s incredibly athletic and strong at the point of attack. Cosmi managed to perform at a high level in college despite still learning how to play OT.
