About the author

Anonymous by necessity.

Twenty-plus years inside NFL personnel departments. Three franchises. Combine scouting, Pro scouting, College scouting — Midwest, Southeast, and national territories.

The author's career spans the Columbus Destroyers, the Carolina Panthers, and the Tennessee Titans. Identity is withheld on the public publication because the relationships and league sources that produce this intelligence require it. For institutional subscribers — NFL teams, college programs, and accredited agencies — the author is identified under a confidentiality agreement at signing.

Why The Dossier exists.

Most public scouting content is opinion without process. Most private scouting reports are gated inside three or four organizations. The Dossier sits in the middle: a process-led publication, written by someone whose process has been audited by NFL general managers for two decades, and made available to a small, paying readership.

The framework.

Reports lean on RVS — Roster Value Score, a proprietary 0–100 composite of athletic profile, production, positional value, recruiting pedigree, scheme fit, eligibility, availability, and character. Every report shows the math, the scheme fit grid, the NIL valuation, and comparable players from the past five years. Subscribers can disagree with the take; the evidence is on the page.
