He could have been the Seahawk Soup Nazi....No soup for you!!!
According to this, he had a calf strain - https://theathletic.com/4767611/2023/08/11/seahawks-vikings-preseason-jsn-charbonnet/Do we know why Cam Young didn't play in first preseason game?
On PFF's show reviewing the Seahawks-Cowboys game, the commentators absolutely pan Mazi Smith's performance in the game, then criticize the Cowboys for drafting him in the first place, accusing them of drafting for need. (Mazi Smith discussion starts at 2:20, but the talk about Charbonnet and JSN is before that.)
Yes, I think most of us would have been happy to get him, but maybe we dodged a bullet.Thanks for the video! Mazi was on most of my mocks, and yes, I wanted to draft him to fill a need.
Those last two sentences are the main reasons that I don't put much energy towards players we skip over. I don't know enough as a guy who watches barely ANY college football anyway.Mazi still would have filled a need with the Seahawks. He's the closest thing to Al Woods in the draft (just my take from what I saw of him). I was hoping he would have fell to them at 37 (Happy they got Hall there so no complaints on who they picked). Just because he's not yet working out for the Cowboys doesn't mean he wouldn't pan out here. It's not an one size fits all league. Number of things factor into why a player is successful in the league.
OMG, that video of Mazi Smith being pancaked play after play, and not doubled, either. Too funny. He played into the fourth quarter because McCarthy said there were players who they wanted to sit and players who needed the reps, lol. He still didn't register a single tackle.
They are on hereNo one is a superstar or a bust after two preseason games.
I wonder if his size is actually a disadvantage when starting out in the NFL. Got used to being able to push around smaller players with less refined techniqueMazi played almost the whole game and didn't make a single tackle. He may not be a bust, but he isn't playing like a first round pick or pre-draft #1 nose tackle.
Disagree. He would have been a reich in the first round.I'm telling you guys. Not picking Nazi was a mistake. He is going to completely Geobbel up the competition.
