Thanks for selecting me as your NT coach this season. Hopefully, we'll be able to get that trophy we deserve.


If anybody wishes to help with some scouting, please let me know. You can reply to this thread or send me a PM. Let me know how many scouts you can donate this week. I can send you a list of players to scout.

If anybody already has scouts of potential players, feel free to send them to me by PM. Please put the player name as the subject. At this time, please only send players with skills in the 17+ range. If some of the relevant skills are lower, that's fine. If the highest skill is 16, then hold of for the time being please. I may ask for some lower skill player scouts at certain positions later on if we are running low on prospects.

If anybody has any suggestions or advice, please feel free.

Thanks for all your help!

I have pledged 5 scouts for the NT minimum. Give me a position and I'll start looking, and most likely I will burn a lot more than 5 reports for the NT.

A couple of things looking over the roster I've already realized.

1) Bot players do NOT lose fitness stats over 30. So I won't be looking to automatically try to replace players on bot teams that are over 30. Best stats will get the spot.
2) It's hard to take advantage of multi-position trained players as you can only see the rating for their main position. For the current roster, if anybody knows of any multi-trained players, please let me know so I can make note of it and keep it in mind for lineups. I already know that OL Carson Thomas is also a DL(his actual primary position). Any others??? LB Lonny Anson and LB Armand Dew may be as well. When getting their stats from the NT roster, both had different positions than what I had them listed at from my earlier searches. I don't know if I made a mistake or if they can play both positions.
3) We have a great need for RB and special teams players obviously. Multi-position players will work fine for these positions as far as I'm concerned, but there should be USA players at these positions with better stats. That's not so say we can't improve at other positions, these just stand out to me.

Thanks for all the help.

Thanks! I've checked many divisions already over the last few weeks. I'll divide up the remaining among all willing to check them out. If you have a preference, let me know.


EDIT:

These are the divisions I've already looked through to get the list of players.
top 3 divisions North America
top 2 divisions Central & South America
top 2 division Central Europe
top 2 divisions Atlantic Europe
top 2 divisions Eastern Europe
top division Balkans

If anybody wants to just jump in, feel free to look for prospective players. Please post here which regions and divisions/leagues you have checked or are checking so we can avoid duplication as much as possible.
For the list, players should meet the following criteria.
1) Be from the USA (obviously)
2) salary of around $44,000 and up. This ensures one skill of at least 16 or higher.
3) For players on bot teams, salary should be around $70,000 and up ensuring skills of about 18+. Bots have no chance to improve so they need to be higher to be considered.
4) I'm hesitant of players for teams in the lowest division for each region. If these teams are bots or go bot, they are subject to getting new managers. The NT players will go to the transfer market, but if there are no buyers, we could lose these players at critical times. Use your best judgement if you want to check these. A real standout, I would consider anyway.

Again thanks for all the help.

Thanks for you pledge.

Instead of positions, what I'll likely do is ask for scouts of specific players. I've already compiled a list of over 500 players with salaries high enough to consider. Between NT roster, checking the waiver wires this season, scouts I've done since season started and scouts reports I've already received, I have about 100 player reports (not really scout since I don't have ALL info on these players, just relevant on many) of those 500+.
Hopefully we can add a few more players to the list to choose from and then get scout reports for the most promising or for those positions in need of the most improvement.

Players works just as well. You get the first five scouts I have after I get a list and then at least 4 per week until you have the information you need. Let's put the US back where it belongs, on top!

Most likely, will only get the scouts for this week. Rosters will be locked next Friday. It's possible we could get some scouts in between training update and the time the rosters are locked, but I may not be able to get the info and make any changes in time. We'll have to see.

A few prospects were posted to the online documents I sent you a link to, so that is a couple of free scouting reports at least.
