Mazi Smith Weight Listed At 328

[starfan1]

He’s listed as a DB.

Yep and played LB in Quinns system

 

[starfan1]

Cool now do Damone Clark LVE Overshown as they were the LBs before injuries forced us to play Bell there.

nvmd I think he was being tongue and cheek. Im well aware our normal LB weigh more than 215

I’m thinking he was weighing more than his listed 205. That’s ridiculously undersized for an LB.

Ya I think your right which makes it even dumber but injuries can force your hand I guess. hes listed as 218 earlier in the thread. I didnt want to sidetrack the thread I think @Coogiguy03 was being sarcastic in nature But Ill step out of it so the Mazi thread can continue

There’s been jokes about the size of our LBs. We need size back there to help shed blocks and stop the run. Zimmer likes size. Overshown has added 15 pounds.

Osa almost 300lbs. that’s a big jump for him. hope he does not loose his speed.

I think Zimmer will push size over speed. He wants his DTs to be able to hold their ground more than he wants them to be pass rushers. I'm sure he'd prefer both, but if he had to pick one ...

It might be a catch 22 with Mazi:

If he drops weight, he gets off the ball faster, but is robbed of his power.

Keep him at 330+ you retain his power but he is just too slow.

Pulling for the kid. I hope he fits Zimmers scheme and is able to help out in the trenches

If they all started at the same time I might agree but he was going a full tick after everyone last season. Timing is more of an issue than quickness at this point.

Cowboys have Mazi back on that Big Boy diet.

 

[jblaze2004]

Wow I didn't know digs was that big 6'1 205. He is bigger than some of our safeties. Zeke should try to get down to probably 220 or 215 and try to get some of his speed and quickness back.

 

[jblaze2004]

Also did Daron Bland grow 2 inches? I thought he was 6'0. I am starting to question these numbers lol

 

[J12B]

Heard they are trying to get him down to 268 so he can play, DT, DE, LB, Safety, and RB.

This front office and coaching staff focuses on positional flex.

Why did we have him dropping weight only to add it back?

Donovan Wilson is the only one that is Diggs size at 6-0 204

Bland was 6-0 1/8 at the combine. So that one is fudged. Probably came from his college listing.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

Pounding pizzas with big Mike in the off-season?

 

[gtb1943]

Roll my eyes at the idea that he decided to lose the weight himself and the team not knowing about it; so they obviously approved.
Bluntly speaking a player decided to either gain or lose a significant amount of weight and not telling the team about it is far fetched.
Seems clear to me the team told him to do it

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

I can't read that.


Is that a list of food Mazi had for lunch today?

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

What was he last year?

A big fat useless blob of fat

 

[Qcard]

216 He could have played MLB for us

Because the organization would of been criticized for drafting a run stuffing DT in the 1st. The reason we drafted him was McClay's assertion that he had pass-rush potential. As @J12B mentioned, at 320+ it was probably seen as hampering his pass-rush, 3-tech/DE flex.
