I'll be monitoring everything I get, and will be updating the thread every day.

Going to be a stressful week if Gronk starts practicing

This is doubly huge for me as not only do I have Hernandez but the guy I'm playing in the championship has Gronk.

Well..for your case it may help out. The owner might start Gronk(which would be a stupid move), and get 7-8 points out of him.

Gronk will be limited

If I had gotten 7-8 points a game out of my TE all season I would have been fricking ecstatic. Come on bill as a Hernandez owner with gronks owner still in the playoffs. Do the right thing!

Our playoffs are three weeks long. I'm going to advance to the next round. Here is the kicker...

One of the other seeds advancing released Gronk. I picked him up 3-4 weeks ago and stashed him.

I may be getting a free trial run of the GRONK if I make it to the finals.

How frickin pissed is that guy going to be. 16 team league, alternative was Dennis Pitta/Heath Miller

PPR league too.

Someone in my league dropped Gronk this past Thursday. I have a waiver claim in now to pick him up. Not sure I'll use him since I picked up Pitta last week (and started him ), But this is the championship and I don't think I need any help at any other position. So if I can

pick up Gronk, and he looks good in practice this week, then I figure it couldn't hurt my lineup.

I don't think Gronk plays, and even if he does, he will be limited.

I'd rather him not play at all

Standard PPR has me and my opponent both at 140 projected.. Going to be a battle

I have both Gronk and Hernandez.

The Hernandez owner in my league dropped him when he got injured (I know, moron) and I picked him up.

Tue, Dec 18
Gronkowski, who returned to practice on a limited basis Friday, was spotted Monday without a cast on his left forearm, the Boston Herald reports.
Recommendation: While that's a good sign, it doesn't guarantee that he'll suit up Sunday against the Jaguars. Look for Gronkowski to be among the slew of Patriots listed as limited at practice this week, then questionable come Friday. If he ends up in the game-time decision category in Week 16 -- a real possibility -- fortunately for his fantasy owners, the Patriots kick off at 1:00 ET on Sunday.

Wed, Dec 19
ESPN's Adam Schefter speculates that the Patriots are targeting a Week 17 return for Gronkowski (forearm).
Recommendation: That's a plausible scenario, though we suspect that we won't have confirmation of that until shortly before the Patriots' 1:00 ET kickoff against the Jaguars on Sunday. Either way, we suspect that Gronkowski will be among the Patriots listed as limited at practice all week and then officially tagged as questionable come Friday.

As a Gronk owner, I'm really glad to hear that. Now I don't have to agonize over whether or not to risk starting him.
