i try to explain it with an example:
You pay every week 10.000$ in Scouting, so you got 2 Sscouting point every week
at the end of season there is an draft, and you got a peace of information, for every scouting point - if you scout a player once you see which posssition he plays an "how good" he is actually(he gets star 5 stars for a good player one for a really bad one)
If your scout visited him twice(random) you see if he got high or low potential, and know a little bit more about how good he is.
Then you could decide who you want to pick first or late, till the draft is startet, and then the worst team in your league got the first pcik and the player he choose first, after that the second team choose his first player and get him when it is not the same the first one choose ... If the player already picked you get the next on your list.
