I like Gronk, but the guy can't stay healthy.

There are different ways to measure this. As a pure receiver, I take Thomas right now. He is still learning the nuances of the game, having played one year of college football, then hurt his first 2 years in the NFL, and only just now in his second season as a starter. He has played amazing this season. He is next to impossible to cover one-on-one. He routinely beats corners, safeties, and linebackers. He is on pace for about 30 touchdowns this season.
But he is possibly the worst blocker in the NFL. I don't know how Graham and Gronk match up there. I also think Graham and Gronk are both better at out jumping the defense for the ball.

Graham and Gronk are far and away the best receivers on their respective teams. Julius Thomas is not. He probably doesn't get anywhere near the double teams the other two get.

Salty as frick

Gronk plays in like 1 of every 3 games, Thomas is a fricking thug scumbag and JG is a good dude that is a hell of a player so the answer is obvious.

Julius is the product of the system. He didn't do shite until Payton got there

Graham isn't top three

All three of these guys have elite QBs.

It's very difficult to compare because Thomas has by far the best number 1 wr taking pressure off of him. Would be a lot easier to compare if Broncos didn't have demayrius

Legit point. If you rank the WR's from the Saints, Broncos, and Pats, Demayrius is way out in front of everyone, and Sanders may very well be #2.
