Absolutely. This isn't the issue with the draft though. The issue is that if I select the players my scout likes the most they are all crap. This is because he's misscouted these players and they are the outliers on which he's too high.
I'm fine with the scouts blowing first round picks. It just isn't all that much fun to know that every guy i'm picking is crap because I have no identified that if they look like 5 star prospects... they aren't - the scout is just off on them.
I'd be better off taking his 4th or 5th recommendation - it's much more likely that is an accurate scouting report I'm looking at.
