The two aren't comparable, IMO and that's why one was a 2nd round pick, from a big program, while the other was an UDFA from a MUCH-smaller program.

I guess what reminded me of Gregory was his relatively slight frame.  He sure didn't look 245 lbs to me and Gregory came in to the league around 235.  Gregory had tons of off field issues (mostly pot, which is amazing how hard it was punished before) but he worked and developed.  Hodge did have good explosiveness and long arms, which I really like in a DE, but I know he isn't in Gregory's class.

I was just hoping he could develop as Gregory did.
