you're all looking at this from the incorrect viewpoint, it's not the scouting that's the necessarily the issue, it's the teams and coaching staff of where they end up going to. There have been many a qb bust in the pros for the team who drafted them but they turn out to be decent with another team. or you ended up in detroit and your qb got sacked 70x a year and got gun shy. it's not that the qb was necessarily a bust, it was they were not in a system that took advantage of their skills. Lamar is in a system that took advantage of his skills. if he ended up in cleveland he'd be on the IR constantly. sometimes maybe the scouts evaluated the player correctly, the team just failed to utilize in the best way. if you want to scout someone, simply go talk to the locker room manager and see how that player behaves inside the locker room. tape shows everything else and you can teach 80% of the position, the other 10% if desire to win and 10% brain reaction time which cannot be taught or trained. it's just some people have quicker synapses. so, is his ego in check, is he teachable, does he want to win, and does his brain process quickly. and then all can be destroyed by bad coaching.
