HS "scouts" are journalists for the most part and it's a business with caveats built in and publicly known. PFF pawns itself off as the leader in collegiate and professional scouting and expect their determinations to be the standard in which all are compared. Huge difference and none of them are watching all the snaps they lead you to believe they are. Even if they are they still don't relay the caveat that they don't really know what the assignment was just an educated guess based on tendencies and what others on the play were doing. It's a useful tool like much of analytics but also with much of analytics, it lacks context and instead is an orgy of formulated numbers that are expected to be taken as "evidence" a player is good, bad or average.

I’m sure you know more about a guy you didn’t know existed 1 day ago lol
I love watching you guys trying to determine who is good or not in the portal,
If player is at a position of need, he’s automatically good. What anyone else says about them doesn’t matter. And this is why you guys are disappointed in every portal player once they hit the field

Over the years I’ve been invited with college coaches to scout players, I’ve been asked to attend high school games, give an honest assessment of a player. I’ve been to games, called a college coach told him, watch the film on this kid.
I once gave a college coach a kid in BTR, to watch film on. I said in your offense and special teams, he would average 150 yards per game. He watch film, called me back, said he would be in town Wednesday, at the kids school Thursday. He arrived at the school, the young man had given a verbal to Michigan the night before.
I watch Austin Deculus, Russell Shepard and Danielle Hunter in high school. Way before they made it to LSU.
My cousin is a scout that is asked for an evaluation of college players, by many NFL teams. NFL teams want as much information as they can compile together.
Like myself, everyone has an opinion, that’s one thing that makes sports interesting.
