2/3rds or so work has been done on the top of top end. Assume they have been following the top players for 2/3 years and HS for 1/2 years. These spring games are to cross-check and see if they are making positive changes from winter work. Doubt much will change the flow already happening with extra guys that you don’t know well. Sure Chernoff and Chris will see a few WF, OSU and WVU games with maybe a dinner (or chance bumping into someone(s) depending on rules) …. and maybe they call an old retired scouting friend to tag along as a 10th opinion but not some general scout/cross checker off the street.
BUT, the work of choosing first is less than choosing 16th as you know your limited pool to focus on (so more focused time on 4-7 guys than 8-12 who May drop). You just need to get it right which is based on what you supposedly already put together whether 1st or 16th. Think the biggest change is to look into their backgrounds more to avoid an embarrassment like Franco as the pick sb one of our 3-4 headliners in short order.
