Still makes me laugh. I will admit I was disappointed with picking him because of the back injury. Turns out I was wrong and he ends up being right there in the mix of offensive rookie of the year. He's a monster and I'm glad we got him.

man, I remember watching that live and saying to myself that "I hope this kid plays as well as he is excited", and boy, was I happily surprised by his success.

Later on he comes out and is wearing the helmet, and, I believe, his brother is wearing another team's helmet, and they head butt each other.

The best part was at the end when the whole family did the "Gronk" chant.

My roommate is a Pittsburgh fan and the first he said when the Patriots drafted him was, "damn, he's huge." His reaction during the NE-PIT game was priceless.

Thanks for re-posting that! Reminds me that we've got something good to look forward in regards to the NFL.

I did like the pick. He was an impact player last year.

I always love the Jets fans booing every Pats pick. We'll this months draft, the Jets fans have lots of it to do.
