"I've been told Gronk is ready, willing and able to play."
"Reiss said this morning that Gronk is wanting to get back in now."
Guess we'll see . . .
Then you got guys like this who say Gronk is done for the year....
Rob Gronkowski Injury Update: Star tight still on the mend for fantasy owners - SBNation.com
Don't know where either side of this debate would have any truthfulness right now
I hope he waits until the playoffs. Or until the Jags game to dust off any rust. We can beat the 49ers without him though - I really believe it. Then the Dolphins and Jags of course, too.
However, I think the Pats can still get the 1 seed. And that might be the only reason I want him back to help them win. I'm really confident they'll beat the 49ers and win out vs the Dolphins and Jags. And I think the Texans will lose one of 2 against the Colts or against the Vikings, making them finish 13-3 and giving the Patriots with the tie-breaker & home field advantage if they meet in the Conference Finals (that would be huge)
Can the Pats finally answer the begging of posters such as me, Deus, JackBauer, etc. and just draft a 2nd round WR in 2013 that can operate as a deep threat/#3 WR? I'm so sick of these fragile slow old guys occupying the position.
Two things :Then you got guys like this who say Gronk is done for the year....
Two things :
1) When he says "done for the year" he's talking regular season, when almost all fantasy seasons end. For our purposes, we shouldn't need him vs. Jax and Mia so if he doesn't play against SF then "done for the (fantasy) year" isn't that relevant to us.
2) There is zero indication from that that there was any actual information, just a guess. Reiss being quoted (although I didn't hear it myself), that's different. Doesn't mean he will return but he sounds like he can.
Shiancoe released as well.
I really have to wonder if he's actually injured or not. He was interviewed post-game and he seemed fine. I'm guessing they're just making room for Branch.

if that we're the case, it would seem he'd be on IR.Then you got guys like this who say Gronk is done for the year....

We tried that....
Chad Jackson and Bethel Johnson said hi
This team has failed with drafting WRs in round 2 ..better off with a bonafide veteran WR who is somewhere between 26-31 years of age before risking another dud....get a proven FA AND THEN gamble in the draft for a decent WR in the mid rounds.
Branch should definitely be coming back.
