I think it depends on what you value more. A TE or a LB. I honestly don't know. I agree TG is the best TE to play the game but I think Ray Lewis has had a bigger impact on the games he's played in.

Lewis is an incredible linebacker and player, but is he the best ever at his position? Maybe. You should probably reread the OP.

Gonzalez today would put up pretty similar numbers as Gronk in that offense.
