This is the Athletic Football Show's Football GM podcast.

Welcome everybody to the Football GM podcast, and welcome back, everybody.

After a two-week hiatus, the football GM podcast is back with me, Mike Sando,

the GM, Randy Mueller. Good to see you again, Randy. How you doing?

Hey, great to be back, Mike. I'll tell you what, it was enlightening and very encouraging for me.

And I think you mentioned this too. We, you know, we spent a little time in Indy a couple weeks ago.

And it seemed

like everybody we met, whether out on the street corner or in the media room or even NFL

teams, the first thing out of their mouth when we said hello was that they listened to the podcast,

which absolutely took me back. It did me too.

You kind of record this thing.

You don't really know always who's listening.

I felt that too.

It was great to know there were so many people in the league.

People I hadn't even met, you know, in some cases.

That would be the first thing that came up.

So we're glad to have you all here.

And Randy, I noticed you don't have your golf tan.

You've been in the film room a lot later here. You were a little worn down, but I know his frequency was about to begin because you'd been spending weeks going through looking at these players, but you sound rejuvenated. How you doing? I'm doing great. I love the process, and I've been asked on several radio shows this week, do you miss it? Do you miss it? I do miss this part of it. I love the process and the grind.

I miss having eight or ten guys in the same room with me and hashing this all out and getting

it all sorted out and building a consensus and critiquing every minute detail of these players

and how they, some might fit better for us than others.
