Hey guys,

Every year I try scouting again, and then typically shut it off. this is weird for me because I LOVE LOVE LOVE scouting in Football manager. However in OOTP it just never works for me because I think scouts in general in OOTP are bi-polar.

Ok. So to start the season as the Cardinals I need to spend a lot of money on scouting because I have a lot of money and since you are the Cardinals there isn't much chance of getting a top 10 pick. So in pre-season I go in and change scouting budget from like 8 million to 16 million.

The starting scouted ratings look okay, but by the end of the season my scouts think everyone has potential of 80. This made drafting/trading nearly impossible as I had no idea who was a good prospect.

is anyone else noticing this?
