This will occur even with draft pools separated by one year; as long as I haven't assigned the scout to a different task in the intervening time, the game will think he's still scouting the draft pool, even though he completed the task 11 months previous.

Of course, it's only a minor inconvenience; I can assign the scout to a new short-term task (e.g. scouting a random player), and then re-assign him to the draft pool or whatever. The behaviour is consistent and repeatable, in several fictional MLB style leagues. I haven't seen the issue reported here, which makes me wonder if it occurs in others' games.
The draft pool part has been reported previously, but I don't believe anyone ever noticed that the behavior could be worked around by assigning the scout(s) in question to another task in the interim.

(The previously reported draft pool issue was that once a scout had been assigned to scout a draft pool he couldn't be assigned to do so again the following year. This was possibly a seperate issue, and I believe it's been claimed fixed.)
