As a hokie and a tech fan. I'd pass on him. He's a big dude 6'7 with pass catching ability but you'd have to question how consistently you'd get it out of him. For a big guy he doesn't always fight for and outgrab over DBs and doesn't really always use his frame to his advantage. He manages to play smaller than his frame if that's even possible... and if you guys have been frustrated with Benjamin.. he's not gonna make you feel any better. He's gotten increasing yards in the past year mainly because of the change in offensive philosophy rather than his improved talent. If we're getting anyone from Tech in the third it better be Isaiah Ford tbh. But yeah, Teams will prob draft Hodges after he goes off at the combine and think they can coach him into a Jimmy Graham.

Highly athletic TE with oodles of potential as far as pass catching. As good as a pass catcher that he may become, as big of a liability as a blocker.

The Next  Jimmy G

If he can't run block we dont need him.

We already have 2 many oversized WRs with limited skill sets.

Lets focus and look at a real potential pick TE Micheal Roberts

    • Same, I expect this game to be the one where fans really riot Knowing us...  -Jalon Walker/JPJr. get at least 3 sacks -Jessie Bates gets an INT -Michael Penix throws at least 3 TD passes -XL drops at least 2 passes  
    • I realize we were down 24 points when the Carolina Panthers touched the ball  for the first and only time  in the 3rd quarter...and they went on a 14 play checkdown drive taking the exact plays the Cards wanted them too and gave them overall.  and now you got folks cherry picking random plays asking how could it be garbage time if the Cards weren't in prevent on a 3rd down short yardage play or on the goal.  all you got do to is just watch the game live on repeat and not listen to the announcers.  
    • Just my opinion, so take it for what it's worth. I think Bryce decides who he's throwing to before the snap too often instead of reading what he sees post snap. Now alot of that is trying to influence the safety, but if the safety doesn't bite, he gets stuck and it turns into Bryce trying to make a play off schedule as the other options are gone. Cam did the same thing when Kelvin and Smitty were in the game. Bryce sees the field. He just gets a little stubborn sometimes. And that's when he gets himself into trouble. That and he doesn't trust guys to make plays on 3rd down. Instead of throwing to the open guy and letting them get the remaining 3-5 yards for the first, he'll wait until he can throw a guy to the markers. I don't think those physical limitations that keep being brought up is that real for him. Well... until he gets tackled and fumbles the ball at an alarming rate. But he has a strong enough arm, sees the field, and doesn't get injured by regular hits.
