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

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
