Know Your Own Roster
Before pro scouts can even start to look to outside options — free agents, guys on the street, or potential trade targets — it’s essential to evaluate each and every player already on the roster, from the top down. “You have to know your football team,” said Mike McCartney, a former pro scout and director of pro personnel with the Bears and Eagles who’s pivoted to the agent side of the industry. “If you don’t know your own football team, first and foremost, you’re gonna make mistakes.”
Coaches and front office are the ones that know our own roster. Scouts don't.
You think scouts are the ones making draft picks and signing free agents? You just don't get it.
