Bill Belichick is not the guy out there scouting. He's not the one travelling across the country looking at players, relentlessly going over combines, workouts, evaluations, etc.... He's not the one managing the scouts. He's not the one who gets the whole personnel process wheels. Belichick may have final influence on some personnel decisions. But no personnel decision can be made unless you have a team of extremely good, well managed scouts.
And from the sound of it, Pioli has his scouts going to millions of games this year across conferences.

Now that's some intellectual dishonesty right there. Just admit that you ****ed up, I'm not going to hold it against you.
With that said, just like he had his scouts going to every preseason NFL game?
Funny, how out of 60 preseason games, he found one player to sign who was waived after them...and he came from New England.
That's some ****ing due diligence.
It's also funny that you would impugn someone else for the buddy network while simultaneously praising Scott Oedipus.
