As does a scout's interpretation of those skills.
I just think that it's weird for a scout to say: Player A lost some power and his contact is down a bit too. It's probably because his eye for the zone isn't what it was 6 months ago. But, I rate him as being better, overall, than I thought he was when I gave you a report 6 months ago. How do you get better overall as a player if your individual attributes all drop a bit?

Then, in the second example the scout it reporting that CF hasn't really changed at all since the last report when I graded him 4.5 stars. Actually, his eye improved a bit, to be honest. So now I grade him not being quite as good as my last report. NO SOUP FOR YOU!

It seems weird to me that as his attributes are improving, his overall grade is declining and vice versa.
