I think if you go with a 2-8 scale with low scouting accuracy you should still get some good fog of war. A 5 contact rating can mean a pretty big range of batting averages so if that veteran takes a dip he could still show up as a 5.

I agree with your point. Since scouts gather their opinions from watching players perform, the game should model it that so talent changes aren't reflected in scouting reports until a certain number of at-bats or pitches/inning after the talent change took place.
