Your Mentor: Ric Serritella
Founder, NFL Draft Bible

Ric Serritella has spent more than 22 years immersed in football scouting, talent evaluation and the NFL Draft process.

His background includes the NFL Combine, college Pro Days, All-Star Games, NFL workouts and football media.

His work has appeared across major outlets, including ESPN, CBS Sports, Sports Illustrated, USA Today and NBC Sports.

More importantly, Ric understands the decisions that shape an athlete's professional future.

He knows how players are evaluated, what families care about and why some agents consistently build relationships while others struggle to get started.

In this apprenticeship, he shares that knowledge directly with you.

You won't just learn what successful agents do. You'll work on how to put those methods into practice yourself.
