Quote:To be clear, I, for one, am not making fun of you for "watching tape."


I simply don't believe that you actually do.


At best, I believe you watch TV video from sites and YouTube clips and attemp to equate that to coach's tape, which, of course, it is not. I know for a fact that you have no idea what traits actual NFL people look for in a player's translation for the next level.


At best you are slightly more informed than someone who watches every game for a guy, or who simply watches YouTube highlights.


At the end of the day, you still don't know near as much as an actual evaluator, or someone actually watching coach's tape.

 

Well, you are correct that my "tapes" are internet videos from television feeds.  I do not work for any NFL team nor BLESTO, etc so I wouldn't have access to coach's tape.  I don't think I've ever read anyone equate youtube to coach's tape.  Maybe you are just taking offense to the term, "watching tape?"  I am open for whatever else you want to call it.

 

And again, I agree with you that I don't have near the knowledge of an experienced professional scout.  

 

It doesn't mean I have no idea what I am talking about.  If it takes a professional to have an opinion, I think we should all agree to not vote since we aren't profesional politicians after all.  We should never disagree with a politician.
