If EA absolutely insists on using scouting points so be it... maybe these points can be use for stuff like being good at evaluating offensive players but suck at defensive player (so your +/- for offense is a 3; for defense it is 15) or maybe the team is good at finding late round gems (+/-10 in rounds 1-3 and +/- in four and after). Or maybe they are good at specific positions. Whatever.... the possibilities are endless. And the good thing is that this is kind of what happens in real life. When Andy Reid was with the Eagles, he just could not draft LBs but he was good at O and D lines. It happens. Oh yeah... how do we determine who gets to have a "good" or "bad" personnel department? Well, the better your team performs, the more resources you have.

This is one of the things I love about NBA2K MYGM where the scouts actually matter. If your scouts aren't good, then you'll get bad info but if they are good you'll get the correct information. The Carson Wentz situation is why scouts need more importance and value in CFM. The old Browns front office thought Wentz wouldn't even be a Top 20 QB, and yet you wonder why they have struggled to find a QB for almost 20 years. The Eagles had the right information and probably wins MVP tonight instead of Brady if he didn't get hurt.

Also to add on to this, not only do the scouts opinions matters in NBA2K but also the team doctors matter as well. Your doctors will essentially tell you a players' injury history and say that based off a guy being injured this much, you should probably pass on him. Imagine having to hire and improve the medical staff in CFM where you can get the right info on whether an injury can effect a player, each year you hear about guys who fall because teams are worried about their injury history. You hit the nail on the head with this one.
