is it time to expand our scouting department?

My guess would be that we have a limited amount of time to spend on scouting. With our current draft needs, WR and OL mainly, I would venture to say that while there is interest in ASF and Sankey, unless there is a trade back for picks, we won't be seriously looking for a running back or TE in late second or early third. If we did go RB, there would be a mass coronary across the huddle.

Quality over Quantity.

If we can have a draft similar to last year's where we picked up five starters or at least find another stud/superstar in the first round like Cam, Kuechly and Star, then I could care less what the size of our scouting department is at the end of the day.

We picked up 5 starters in the draft last year? Star was the only consistent starter.

KK was in rotation

Kug never even practiced

AJ will eventually be a permanent starter, but he wasn't last year.

And Barner never started and only saw limited return duties and garbage time carries.

I didn't see anything that suggests our staff is small, other than the fact we weren't present at one particular pro day. Just think of it this way if it will make you feel better: we're looking at someone that the rest is missing.

Even though he wasn't drafted, I think you have to include Melvin.

Short

Klein

Lester*

While these most of these players didn't get the start per se, they were heavily involved in our line up. Short, Lester and White are credited with starts however.

I was just going of the draft like you stated. We had 5 picks and only one started more than 3 games.

We switched from a big group to a small one called BLESTO. They could be handling this pro day for all we know

 

The scouting organizations scout the college players in the seasons prior to their final season. It's for the purpose of providing baseline information that scouts can then use in the players final season. So, when a teams scout is looking a seniors or players likely coming out early they will also do some basic scouting of the other players on the teams of the games they attend. This is then collected and distributed to the scouts of the member organizations as the baseline for their next years scouting.

dave hired a old scout form colts, i forgot his his name. he wanted a older scout and this guy lives in SC. he was considered a great scout(i believe he was in charge of all scouts), but had a bad break form the colts. the great isray, said this scout was retiring..... once the scout heard that, he denied it. messy
