I can't imagine any actual former scouts (btw Narwocki is a media scout like McShay or Kiper and to my knowledge has never been an actual scout) would ever write public report of that nature, especially based on 2nd hand opinion. (We all know full well that right about now a team GMs/scouts/official will say anything short of out right lies about their opinions of the prospects)
Behind closed doors different people are gonna have different views of prospects based on personality which by its very nature is subjective.
You can allude to a players off the field concerns or personality concerns in a professional manner without becoming personal.
Imo its a sad commentary on the nature and general direction of media at large.
But, kudos to Nolan I bet PFW has never received this many hits.

Well, that's your interpretation of it. I don't think it's personal, it's business. If Newton can't handle it he's probably not going to be able to handle a lot of things at the next level.
Funny, I don't remember the public outrage last year when these things were said about Clausen:

Has a sense of entitlement, having attended private schools, worked with private QB coaches and being sheltered by his family, who bought a house on campus so his brothers had a place to stay for every game. Arrogant-can come off as having all the answers and struggle to win a locker room. Still immature. Comes across as overly staged, scripted and disingenuous in interviews and does not have the type of presence desired in the face of a franchise.
