simple.
The season is 14 weeks long (11 league weeks plus 3 weeks of playoffs) thus 14 scouting opportunities. in each of these oportunities your team could scout 0,1,2,3, or 4 players. thus, there could be chances to scout 56 instances of scouting in a season (some might be scouted more than once)

if you come in a 3 weeks late, then you can scout for 11 weeks, and could have up to (11*4=44) scouting instances.

so no worries that you missed a few weeks. just scout what you can afford.
last season I had three weeks of scouting at 2 players a week. just from that US$ 30,000 I was able to see some 5 star players. I was able to get a couple players that have really helped my team, and with some traiining I can sell in a few seasons.

Scouting that occurs after the playoffs commence will count towards next season, not this season.

Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score

Is scouting really worth it? If you invest $20K per week, you end up spending $280K over the course of a season. I am currently in 1st place (only one loss), so i will probably be picking at the bottom. Wouldnt i be better off saving my 280K and buying quality players with the money??

You really won't be picking at the bottom. Most of the other teams won't know anything about most of the other players. Each team that scouts is told about different players, whose indentity is anonymized by a number. Joe Smith might be #32 on your scouting report, and #4 on mine, and #16 on someone else's.

So the players that you know about as being talented will be passed over by the other teams, simply because they don't know anything about the player, or they will know about other players who are as highly rated, and will pick them instead.
