If they start offering an "ALL 22" NFL Replay type deal for college football.....the professional scout will have very little advantage over us armchair scouts.
Good lord...
beanies must cut off the blood flow to the brain.
I think you might have hit on our greatest advantage Vin. They know all the dirt. We know (well, in some cases at least) the stuff that hits the media. They pick on character. Or more precisely they exclude certain prospects all together. So guys fall into the late rounds or into UDFA. Going after those character "fallers" in every draft would prove to be an excellent drafting strategy after the 3rd round imo.
could be but its not just good and bad character, its ability to play at this level, like one our linebackers, Watson, looks like a stud has stud stats but slow to develop. Dont pick that last part on tape, just by talking to Watson and his coaches etc

Why the hell would jdud need ALL 22 to decide if a player is cute enough to draft or not?
This thread is 100% failed. You can't put all "professional talent evaluators in the same category and you can't put all non experts in the same category. Some scouts are terrible. Some GMS are terrible. The only advantage a professional scout has is that they have access to more information. The layman only sees the on field side where a scout gets to find out if he was late or no show for almost every practice, if he eats nothing but cheeseburger and berates his teammates, is hated in the locker room or if he is a great teammate and always on time and spends his spare time at the orphanage kitchen volunteering. Other than that it is just opinions. I guarantee you if we kept track a lot of us would have done much better than Dominik. I know for a fact that my 2010 draft would have been amazing and I would have gotten Foles in 2011. Dominik could not hold my jock strap when it comes to drafting.
This comment is AWESOME! lol
You guys act like I'm saying average fans can build a space shuttle by hand.It's pretty basic stuff....yet some of you guys buy into the illusion that scouting is some super secret and difficult accomplishment. The man behind the curtain is no different than you or me. Many scouts never even played or coached football at any level.

You think?
It's neither here nor there, but after much consideration I cannot come up with a single thought or sentiment that is capable of being conveyed by the written word that is not appropriately accompanied by the phrase "Boid loses."Boid loses.
This thread takes the award for worst in the history of the Red Board.It reminds of that quote from JFK."I mean, how do you know who your daddy is? Because your mama told you
Sounds like a Kennedy.....
LMAO

fixed ;)
The Bucs should draft players based on twitter vote.
I agree with that Vin. Us fans will never have the inside scoop that they are privy to. They will always have that advantage. My point was that when it comes to evaluating the play on the field, an "All22" type film would go a long way. It's hard to get a complete picture when watching a broadcast on TV.
