If anyone could help me find these in the game, or at least has any idea what I'm talking about, I would greatly appreciate it.
Scouting is different in this version. My last version was OOTP 6, and it took me a little while to get used to the new way. First, you need to scout your own team with your scouts, or you won't have any data at all except for your head scout. He will automatically rescout your team on the first of each month.

Go to your scouts from your manager homepage. Then select each scout and go to his task screen. From there you can assign him to any task. In the beginning of the first season, I set each of my scouts to scout my entire organization. That takes a little over a month.

Each scout will send you a report listing your top ten current players and top ten prospects. Don't worry, all the players will have been rated, too.

When all the scouts have reported back, you can look at all your players and see how each scout rates them by choosing the scouting screen.

Hope that helps, its easier to do than it sounds.
