I'd be willing to guarantee a lot of time is spent by scouts and coaches trying to pick up on the intangibles of players. These are multi-million dollar investments we're talking about. It's just such an inexact science though. You're trying to predict what kind of player he may become.

You can't measure a guy's heart or work ethic. And at the time a player is drafted compared to 10 years down the road, a player can do a complete 180 in terms of work ethic and understanding of the game. That's why it's not uncommon to see QB's develop so late in their careers.
