Welcome everybody to the Football GM podcast.

Mike Sando here along with my co-pilot, Randy Mueller, the general manager.

Randy, we got to get you rolling out of here. You're going to Mobile, Alabama, right?

Next week is a Senior Bowl. Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

Seeing a lot of good players and a lot of people who I used to run the roads with out in the scouting world.

So I'm anxious to get down there. Oh, so great. I'm so bummed that I'm not going. Just the way the schedule worked out this week, I would have been too pinched with some other things I've got going on. I haven't made that an annual trip, basically because when I was on the road so much for so much in my career, that was probably if I if I would have added that, I probably would be divorced at this point in a week-week-week. It was just, I just couldn't add trips because I spent a lot of time on the road. Now I'm not on the road as much, certainly not during the season, and I look forward. And my kids were older, right, so it's easier to go on the road. But one just didn't work so you will have to hold that

down but i can't wait to get out there with you on things like that because i want to learn from you

and watch how you sort of evaluate and take notes and all of that it'd be a great learning experience so

maybe next time okay we'll plan on it that'd be awesome i'm looking forward to seeing a lot of good players

jim naggy the chairman of the senior bull has done an awesome job putting together rosters,

especially the last few years. And I'm anxious to see some of these guys who will be talking

about all spring when we get ready for our draft and all the prep work we do. So seeing guys

face to face and live really is a part of the evaluation component that I think sometimes goes

unnoticed for the people on the outside because they don't get to see it.

They don't get to be around these kids and really kind of figure out what makes them tick.

So I'm looking forward to doing that, both at the Senior Bowl and at the East West game
