Rob Gronkowski

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Well, Bill_Brasky didn't say, "Hernandez would be better than Gronk if Gronk was six foot two", he said Hernandez was better than Gronk, so the fact that Gronk is 4 inches taller than Hernandez shouldn't count against him.

Gronk has ho's... and hands. And he has the mind of a white-man with the physical gifts of a black man.

I'm not sure how anyone can still argue that Gates is better, as if this isn't 2011. I'm also not sure how anyone who isn't re ed is holding it against him that he plays with Brady. As if the best TE's or WE don't become great by playing with great QB's. It takes an absolute genius to bring a quality take like "Jerry Rice wouldn't have been so good if he didn't have Steve Young." Strong stuff, guy.

Gronk is top 3-4, which is really saying something for a 2nd year TE. I can't really put him over Witten because Witten has the intangibles that are impossible to quantify. Most of those things come with experience. He has this crazy ability to find holes in coverage regardless of the coverage or the route. He's also an incredibly underrated pass blocker and ball carrier. Gronk is more mobile, but Witten is stronger. Take both in their primes and I think it's a wash probably a wash.

Saying a healthy Antonio Gates is better than Gronk really isn't THAT bad, it's just meaningless and stupid because we haven't seen a healthy Antonio Gates in god knows how long.

Anyone still saying Hernandez is better is just re ed though.

It's sort of like talking about a healthy Greg Oden, Roddy Boobwa or Brandon Roy. This isn't 2009, let's not keep pretending like any of these N-words(with an "A") are ever going to be healthy.

at no one bringing up Jake Ballard in the discussion. He is easily one of the most underrated tight ends in football.

Graham did it. He also blew Sean Payton's knee out

Thanks. Those great big white dudes all look alike to me.

As soon as I saw that he posted ITT, I knew it would be about Ballard

[tlongII]

I guess Graham isn't white though.

Witten = Manu

Witten = Manu

You are correct. You can't quantify route-running prowess. Nor can you quantify the heart of a champion.

Is this Timmy guy really this much of an idiot or just a schtick? I literally cannot tell.

broke the all time single season record for yards AND touchdowns by a tight end
doing it his 2nd season
Techfan saying he'd be nothing without Brady
Cowboyfan saying Dez Bryant is better
anyone denying the fact he's the bst tight end in the NFL

[Bill_Brasky]

Damn looks like they both feasted this game.

Gronk had a great year. He's the best TE in the league.
