Broaddus is an idiot. He hates Mazi for some reason. This is exactly why he is not a scout anymore.
Broaddus really does have guys he dislikes strongly and sometimes one or two that he loves. If he dislikes a player, he is going to tell every one of the 38,000 podcasts that he hops on during training camp, that the guy is doing terrible.
The number of people that hears/watches those podcasts is a huge chunk of Dallas Cowboys fans… so before you know it, almost the entire fan base thinks that player sucks and doesn’t have a chance to make it.
Of course the guys he likes are practicing pretty well.
It is the biggest problem with Broaddus, and yes, I agree with you that it is why he’s no longer a scout.
Having said all of that… the few times that I’ve seen Mazi this preseason, he hasn’t looked great. He has made a good play here or there, but looks disinterested in others.
We’ll have to just see how he plays in the real games to get a good idea.
