Look, it is difficult to know exactly what is happening across the spectrum other than it is a monumental issue that has been posted about pretty much since release with no remediation given to this point by those supposedly in the know - who, in this case at least, don't seem to be.

I suspect the issues for historical saves are triggered by players having real-life stats associated with their in-game avatar.

In pure historical saves the combine - for me, at least, has not worked once. It just starts when it is supposed to without letting you do anything, without players being added. This irrespective of scouting accuracy settings and the like.

I just tried using it in a custom game featuring manually-imported historical players, again with real-life stats attached. Not only did it not let me add any players to the scout's watchlist, it overrode the setting disabling the creation of FA and added fictional players to the combine.

The only type of game I haven't tried it in yet is a purely fictional custom game, in which of course no players have real-life stats. I only have one such game and the Draft hasn't rolled around yet. From what I can gather from the posts, the thing works OK under these conditions but I don't know that for sure.

It is an enigma wrapped inside a riddle, surrounded by a mystery.
