This kid could really be something special. His blocking in the first two games was often dominant, and with Hernandez sitting out he's getting to show what a splendid receiver he can be.
That play where he dragged Laurinaitis into the end zone was as emblematic display of all-round football excellence as one could possibly imagine: speed, hands, strength, agility, and most of all, determination. Extraordinary all in all. What a football athlete.
I really like Hernandez, too, but Gronk has the potential to be the best all-round tight end in Patriots history, better than Russ Francis and at least as good as Ben Coates...
