Episode Notes:
- Matt Waldman goes into great detail about how flawed the scouting process is.
- Scouting has not gotten better in the last 40 years.
- Maybe one of the reasons is that scouting has turned from 70% talent evaluation to 70% character evaluation
- I graded the drafts using the consensus big board after adjusting for the value they came in with.
