I have my head scout reporting regularly on my organization (the head scout will automatically report on anybody on the secondary roster each month, but that's not good enough) and I generally will not overrule what he says (he's a very good scout, another consideration) unless someone's stats are spectacular and he's not too young.

All of this is a matter of preference, of course. These are mine.
Thanks. That's a lot of help.
