| 0:00.0 | Welcome into this Tuesday edition of Push in the Pile, Mike Brenner, J.P. Acosta. |
| 0:19.0 | Today show we're going to be rolling through a little senior bowl, Sh bowl recap, some of the biggest risers, and then we're getting |
| 0:25.4 | to our mock draft what we would do. Everyone does their predicting what they think will happen. |
| 0:32.7 | We're too far out for that. Everyone's done it. We want to get in the minds of all 32 GMs. Well, not all 32, |
| 0:38.2 | because not all 32 have first round picks, but all the GMs that do have first round picks and say how we would approach this draft if we were then. But we'll start with the Senior Bowl, Shrine Bowl, which JP, you were at Senior Bowl. I was at the Shrine Bowl. I was supposed to be at the senior bowl, but I sat in the airport for two days before saying, |
| 0:56.4 | screw it, I'm heading back to Cincinnati. |
| 0:59.2 | We're on to Cincinnati because, dude, it was, I'm actually proud of myself that I managed not to tweet about it. |
| 1:05.7 | I think I'm the first member of media to sit at the airport for two straight days and not tweet about it. |
| 1:10.7 | But it was crazy because they kept just pushing it back an hour every time. Like I had a flight and they wouldn't outright cancel it. They would just push it back an hour. And I'd be like, okay, I'm here another hour. And then they push it back an hour. And then two straight days of pushing back an hour. an hour and unfortunately it's my first senior ball that didn't get to go to since COVID. |
| 1:31.1 | How was it though? |
| 1:32.2 | It was good. |
| 1:33.2 | It was cold. |
| 1:34.4 | It was very cold, but it was good. |
| 1:36.4 | Shout out to Ryan Wilson, who was also with the first pick podcast CBS Sports. |
| 1:41.0 | I was on this show all week. |
| 1:42.7 | It was really fun. |
| 1:43.7 | And I think it was a really cool |
| 1:45.3 | reflection of what this draft class is. It was very strong on a defensive line, especially |
| 1:49.7 | a defensive tackle. Not especially great when it came to the quarterbacking aspect, but I did |
| 1:55.6 | enjoy a lot of the guys that were there. And there are some really cool stories that came out of it. |
| 2:00.7 | Yeah, I do think the defensive tackles down in Mobile were some of the stars. We're going to get to, though, our biggest risers. Three risers apiece. We'll go back and forth. I'll let you kick it off. Who was one of your biggest risers? So one of our biggest risers from the Senior Bowl is Adame Tucker from Western from Western Michigan edge he had 14.5 sacks |
| 2:19.2 | in his final year at Western Michigan 19.3% pressure rate and he came to the Senior Bowl |
