New series on NFLN called Finding Giants. It's kind of like Hard Knocks with scouts from the Giants. It followed the Giants scouts last season and gives an inside look at what these scouts do and all the behind the scenes of the draft.

It starts with the BLESTO combine which was the first combine before the overall NFL combine. BLESTO stands for Bills Lions Eagles Steelers Talent Organization.

Years ago, these teams formed BLESTO to share information and divide up the country to scout more players. The Giants are now in BLESTO and so are the Steelers. The teams pay to be part of BLESTO and each team is assigned a region. Then they give a report for each player that is shared with the member teams.

BLESTO is just a starting point. The teams then use it to decide who to scout further on their own.

It's really interesting if you are interested in the draft
 
Thanks for the information and I will try to check it out.


Salute the nation
 
So that is how we got Colblart..........
 
Watched some of it, hopefully it's replayed so I can watch it completely.
But from what I saw it's pretty good.
 
Bills, Lions and Eagles?!?!?! There's your F'n problem right there.
