Rookie stats:
Gronk 42 rec 546 yds 10 TDs

Sooooo you’re wrong.

Where has this narrative come from? He's a beast up the seam.

10 is still way too much. Dude is a great red zone target but that injury has taken away a lot of what made him special down the seam.

It’s been awhile since he’s been a “beast” up the seam.

42 catches is high impact? and that's the GOAT TE

But you found two medium-impact ones out of the literal hundreds of TEs who have been drafted, good job. The chances of that happening are like <0.5%

I was going to be good either way if we got him or not.

just wish he had gone to a team that didn't have an elite QB unless it was us.

He used to be but I had to watch him last season for fantasy purposes. Last year was his worst YPC, YPG since his rookie season, Catch %, Yards since his rookie season, he had like 6 catches over 20 yards, and yards per target.
His TDs were mostly post ups, only two over 10 yards(11 and 18) and most within 5 yards.
