For example when evaluating QB's, scouts are looking at things such as eye level, accuracy, poise (in a muddied pocket), pocket movement, accuracy, football intelligence etc..

The OP forgot to ask about medical history and police reports.

 

We learned the hard way one DUI is a red flag, even if the charged is reduced to underage drinking.

 

Although he was not a Jaguar, concerns about Beanie Wells getting hurt a lot turned out to be accurate.
