How Important Is A Big Scouting Department These Days?

[BFritz21]

I still think that we need more scouts, but how important is a big scouting department these days?

Everything is online and you can find pretty much every game on every player that you want.

I still think that coaches are important because they know what they want, but we don't need a bunch of scouts to fly all over the country to find hidden gems and properly evaluate players because you can find out pretty much anything about anyone online now.

I think more scouts would be good to find players online, but how important is a big scouting department?

Coaches can spend time before the draft looking for the player that they want and that fits the team needs.

Ironic part is that we finally have a front office willing to spend money when we don't need to as much.
