NFL Teams Visiting Scout
Camp
OPD
in Record Numbers
April 4, 2008 – The National Football League, Canadian Football League, Arena Football League, and Arena Football 2 logged 1,643 visits to the Scout Camp Online Player Database (OPD) in 2007. This is a record number of visits in the 20 year history of Scout Camp.
While visiting the Scout
Camp
OPD
, pro team personnel viewed 12,845 online player profiles. 
The OPD, first developed by Scout Camp in 1997, has changed the way pro teams review player data. The regularly updated, always available, multimedia format of the OPD has replaced the static, paper printouts of the past and has driven its exceptional popularity among pro football personnel.
“Scout Camp and Scout Camp Elite provides an excellent system for players to receive league-wide exposure,” says Brian Billick, former
Baltimore
Ravens Head Coach.
With the addition of streaming video, the OPD became a full multimedia database, bringing together data, full body photos and full-motion video in one, easy-to-use database. Its powerful search tools save teams tremendous amounts of time, allowing them to quickly locate and sign the best players for their team throughout the year.
Michael McCarthy, former New England Patriots and
San Diego
Chargers personnel director says “Scout Camp combines provide me with accurate data I use when considering a player for a pro contract.”
Over 2,500 players have signed a professional football contracts by every team in the NFL, NFL Europe, CFL, AFL and af2. In 2007, over 80% of all pro teams had Scout Camp players on their roster.
NFL clubs have signed over 450 Scout Camp players, including many current NFL pro-bowlers and Super Bowl winners. Such standout players include Falcons Pro Bowl WR Joe Horn, Jets WR Wayne Chrebet, Cardinals Pro Bowl Punter Scott Player, Saints Pro Bowl KR Michael Lewis, Ravens OC Mike Flynn, Redskins WR
