Maybe, but idk man PFF and NFL draft network love him. 

I had him as the fourth rated OT in a deep class--now I am confused about him. 

This is an example of what I read, from a PFN source (again, one man's opinion):

Samuel Cosmi

This biggest farce I’ve come across on draft twitter so far this year is that Samuel Cosmi had a strong game against LSU. Cosmi won a few reps here and there, but I watched K’Lavon Chaisson take him to church more than a few times that Saturday night on national television.

Cosmi, like most of this list, has a physical profile that will intrigue teams and should get him drafted decently early. However, I’ve seen Cosmi as a number of evaluators OT2 behind Penei Sewell when I believe he should be closer to OT10. His down to down consistency, footwork, and hand usage all need to be cleaned up before I can view him as a top-50 prospect.

Then there is this from the OT review of PFN:

Most overrated: Samuel Cosmi, Texas

I’ve seen some analysts have Samuel Cosmi as high as OT2 and that blows my mind. What’s even more interesting is that I’ve seen people mention his performance against LSU as one of the reasons they’re a fan of him. When I watched Cosmi against LSU, I saw an underdeveloped athlete losing far too consistently for my taste.

Cosmi will have a lot of developing to do before I can see him even making my top 50. Luckily for him, he’s an elite athlete which will cause the NFL to overdraft him.

Honorable mentions: Dillon Radunz, NDSU/Walker Little

Could be the same guy

I think he's a potential guy. Boom or bust kinda guy. Rhule did coach against him in the big 10 and his main attribute is athleticism, which we love, so I was putting a connection together.

I agree, and the articles about Greg Little called him boom or bust--but I think Little had more red flags.  I added a second article to my post above, but it could be the same guy.  When you have a #1 like Sewell, it is easy to spot flaws in others.  He is very good.

@Verge sorry about this super late request, but could you mark where the talent tiers are in your top 50? Dividers and doesnt matter the number of tiers. Example have a  " * " between 8 and 9 when the talent drops. 

Yeah I can do that when I release my latest version.

    • I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken. 
    • Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).
    • Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
