To me it looks like Bodine has 2 major problems:  1) No leverage and, 2) No leg strength.

He needs to stay a lot lower and be the aggressor on run plays.  If he can do this he can at least hold his ground, regardless of how good the interior D lineman are on the other side.  On both passing and running plays he needs to be thinking about his leverage - meaning has to focus on establishing his leg's underneath him with the appropriate body angle.  He doesn't get up under anybody and it's constantly killing him because you can't recover with you're straight up and down.

My 2 cents (and that's about what it's worth)...
