No kidding scouts are wrong in real life. If this is your argument that everything is fine then how can you accept any critique of the model.
Scouting seems to work much better everywhere in the game but in the draft.
Edit:
Ok I went through the draft and compared OSA to my scout to the actuals.
This is a silly conclusion but here is how to play: You throw out your outliers.
I'm not sure why I'd hire a scout to disregard him on the players he likes the best but that is how to successfully draft.
I guess saying that is 'broken' is strong, but it's not exactly 'fun'.
The players my scout is most wrong about are the ones that I drafted. So to draft successfully I need to ignore the players with the highest talents per my scout as those are the players he is most likely wrong about, especially true when the talents are off the board >20.
If there is a good player left later in the draft it's because you have scouted them incorrectly - that is why the rest of the league passed...
Not sure what the solution is to this - but it's pretty annoying.
