You get to see what players as they come off the field, what do they look like? what is their attitude? what is their facial expression? how do they react to the coach giving them instructions? etc. None of that is on the game film. I can see a value in going to games of guys you consider 1st and/or 2nd round picks. It kills a team when you whiff on those.

With two scouting directors, whatever that title means, and two scouts, the number of people sifting through film for the Bengals is tiny. It makes you wonder why the Bengals love big school picks. How do they have time to watch anyone else? Big schools let you watch film on more than one guy at a time.

Each year there are 254 draft picks and that many again college free agents. How do two or maybe four people watch that much film? They can't and they don't.

We've seen first hand the results of the Bengals scouting.

Yup agreed. 

I also think as time goes on, we are going to see more and more that Marvin & his staff overachieved with such limited resources provided from the Clown family.
