Takes in each band
Everyone writing under this banner, pooled into the numbers above. Counted by article, with a paginated series counting once — the same rule used for an individual, from the published methodology.
Teams and players where Pushing the Pile (podcast)’s writers keep landing outside the room: at least twice, a call published under this banner sat beyond every other pundit who made a comparable one — higher or lower than all of them, in a room of at least five voices. The bar is the banner’s standing lean (+100 would be the most bullish voice in every room), and the accuracy covers just those out-on-a-limb calls, once they settle. Computed, never chosen.
Outside the room in 2 of 2 articles — always higher · when its writers strayed: 59.9 accuracy (2 settled)
Outside the room in 2 of 6 articles — always higher · when its writers strayed: 82.8 accuracy (2 settled)

Caleb Lomu to be picked “first rounder” (picks 1–32)
Caleb Lomu as well. Blake Miller... every guy that I just mentioned will be a first rounder
Kadyn Proctor to be picked “first rounder” (picks 1–32)
Now Caden Proctor wasn't quite the freak everyone thought, but he had a 32 and a half inch vertical at three fifty two... every guy that I just mentioned will be a first rounder
Monroe Freeling to be 1st left tackle off the board
And so because of that, I do expect him to be the first left tackle off the board
Jordyn Tyson to be picked at number 21
Alright. Steelers, 21... We're going Jordan Tyson.
Jermod McCoy to be picked at number 17
He fell for the lions... Jermott McCoy, the Tennessee quarterback. A true shutdown man potential corner for the Detroit lions.
Eli Stowers to be 2nd tight end off the board
So Eli Sowers, I would bet at this point in time comes off the board as tight end too.
Fernando Mendoza to move to Las Vegas Raiders
Obviously, the Raiders, I think we all know it's gonna be Fernando Mendoza, but they fit the bill here.
Malik Willis to move to Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals, to me, this feels like the Malik Willis landing spot... I I think this one makes the most sense.
Anthony Richardson to be 2nd on the depth chart
He's going somewhere to be a backup next year to just kinda see what you got. Yeah... But I don't have any evidence from his play that he's going to be able to do that to start '26.
Tua Tagovailoa to move to Miami Dolphins
No. No. Tua won't Tua won't be on the team.
Will Levis to move to Tennessee Titans
most likely to be traded out of that group would be Will Levis
Daniel Jones to be 1st on the depth chart
Ultimately, I believe that Daniel Jones will be the quarterback of the Colts.
Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart
I see this playing out as Deshaun and Shador are battling it out for QB one.
Anthony Richardson to move
I did not really see where Anthony Richardson was gonna be a member of the Indianapolis Colts in 2026... You start getting into that fifth round range, and that that's probably the sweet spot. That's probably what's gonna wind up happening.
Aaron Rodgers to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers, Aaron Rodgers. I think that they know that he's coming back... I think that he's their plan
Kirk Cousins to move to Arizona Cardinals
I don't know that cousins just maybe to Arizona.
Spencer Fano to be picked “top 10 player in this class” (picks 1–10)
I'm high on Spencer Fano, the Utah offense tackle. I am as top 10 player in this class.
Rueben Bain to be 1st non quarterback off the board
the FBS leader in pressures this past season, the top non quarterback on my draft board
Will Kacmarek to be picked “sometime on day three”
I think if you want a blocking tight end, I expect him to come off the board sometime on day three to do just that.
Peter Woods to be one of the first two defensive tackles off the board defensive tackle off the board
So I expect in some order those guys to be one too.
Kadyn Proctor to be picked “a top 10 player in this class” (picks 1–10)
There are guys where I'm high on Kane Proctor. I think he's a top 10 player in this class.
Caleb Banks to be one of the first two defensive tackles off the board defensive tackle off the board
It's Caleb Banks with his size power. It's Peter Woods with his explosiveness... So I expect in some order those guys to be one too.
D'Angelo Ponds to post he could run four twos, at least at worst, like mid to high four threes at the combine
I think he's gonna test off the charts. This guy can fly. I mean, he could run four twos, at least at worst, like mid to high four threes.
Michael Trigg to be 2nd tight end off the board
I think Trigg, who's second on my tight end board, is the most physically gifted tight end outside of Kenyon Sadiq in this class.
D'Angelo Ponds to be picked “a top 50 guy” (picks 1–50)
I have him as a top 50 guy, but there's no doubt that he is going to be an outlier either way.
