You're misunderstanding what scouting does. It doesn't change a rating, it reveals it. If you think a player is an 83 at 0% scouted, and he ends up at 78 after being scouted, then when you signed him he would have been a 78 either way. If you don't scout the player who is 83 at 0%, and you sign him.. he may end up at 78.

It is supposed to add a dimension to recruiting, but it really just makes it a lot more complicated to find good players, so you have to make use of your scouting function throughout the season, even after you think you have your recruits picked out. I always sign all 25 and just cut the worst players because of this.

So you're saying that a players who's overall will show up as say 78 when you're recruiting him will turn into his real overall score of either a 70 for a bust or an 82 for a gem when the offseason comes?
Bc when you sign him if hes at 0%, his overall stays the same until you scout him.
And I've never noticed or checked again to see if a player I've ever signed that I didn't scout all the way changed when they actually got on the team.
