Scouting points and true value

[rws591]

That's unfortunate, we won't be able to scout what we desire most.

I'm interested to get into this. Hope it's not too easy, but I welcome the change in scouting from the last couple of years' versions. I still wish they would just use the Head Coach 09 way of free agency/scouting.

NFL Teams aren't gifted with the "True Value" of a player...they have to determine that on their own according to specifically scouted positional attributes and their relation to scheme/needs.

That's WAY too many true values. At most you should be able to get 4 or 5. You can fully scout multiple positions. This ruins busts and sleepers.

Exactly. You can unlock so many true values that every draft you do you can have 4-5 first rounders value-wise. It's B.S. I want realism and a challenge.

I hate that I'm going to have set yet another house rule for myself so I'm not destroying CFM with my team full of superstars.

One thing I might do in my CFM is limit the number of true draft values I unlock in scouting. I'm thinking maybe I pick 1 per position.

We'll see

They also don't scout for letter grades or attribute ratings, they have to come up with an educated guess based on the data they have on a guy and the gametape they have seen.

Personally I would prefer zero true values, make it a risk and reward system where your always taking a gamble. I am probably going to play without revealing any true values. If it is true that you can fully scout 60 guys you will still be able to find busts and sleepers though, 60 is only about 20% of an entire draft class.
