When you have the #1 overall pick - everyone is on the board. So what was it really like scouting @IndianaFootball QB Fernando Mendoza?

Too often, in any industry, we just want to look ahead.
But as John Spytek emphasizes, appreciate where you are now.

There was always 1 dream for new GM of the @Raiders John Spytek - and it wasn't the @NFL

Drafting Talent is one thing.
Signing free agents another.
But getting quality people to follow you to a new home - that can be the biggest challenge.

Some good young scouting assistants are being hired around the @nfl. Also some getting hired because of their last name, a box they check or someone they know.
If teams are not properly vetting candidates (which they aren’t) and then evaluating and developing - the game will suffer.

Genesis 9.13-17
I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

An @NFLDraft prospect goes from a scout, to a few scouts, and eventually becomes a guy the whole team wants.

[RightStepAdvising @RightStepAdv]

Like everything when it comes to the @NFLDraft - there is no consensus among 32 teams.

[RightStepAdvising @RightStepAdv]

When she isn't working on Prospect X - she is turning over all the stones the @NFL may (or may not) want turned. Up next, the Rooney Rule.....

For some corners - scheme matters.
For others - play wherever....

Rushing the passer is important - see Dylan Stewart of #SouthCarolina - but so is coverage - and this might be the best of 2027 @NFLDraft

[RightStepAdvising @RightStepAdv]

If @NFL front offices were serious about their "1% better" mantra - evaluation and development would be a standard part of their organization.
