2022 NFL draft: Virginia Tech G Lecitus Smith selected by the Arizona Cardinals

Virginia Tech offensive lineman Lecitus Smith became the fourth Hokie to be selected in the 2022 NFL draft Saturday when he was selected No. 215 overall by the Arizona Cardinals.

Smith follows James Mitchell, Amare Barno and Luke Tenuta as Hokies picked on Saturday. Former Virginia Tech kicker Jordan Stout, who began his career with the Hokies before transferring to Penn State, was selected by the Baltimore Ravens as a punter.

Smith was a part of Virginia Tech’s 2017 recruiting class. He came to Blacksburg as a tight but it didn’t take long for the former coaching staff to move him to guard.
