Change that font man, it's distractingIf Aaron Hernandez wasn't such a dumb **** we would have had 2 all pro TEs, an all pro safety, a 100 catch/1000 yard WR out of that draft class with McCourty, Gronkowski, Hernandez, and Edelman all draft in 2010.
Basically people wanted Bryant, Gronkowski, and Hernandez, plus resign Welker, plus trade for Peterson, plus trade for Fitzgerald...
Also,
What do you think this offense would be like with Dez and Gronk together? What would it mean for the rest of the NFL?
Yes, that means Dez has more TD in the last three years (41) than Brandon Marshall and Larry Fitgerald's three best TD seasons combined (37). Neither Anquan Boldin nor Roddy White have ever caught 12 TDs in one season and between the two of them only have three seasons of 10 or more TDs. All three of Dez Bryant's last three seasons are in the top 100 all-time in receiving TDs. If Dez gets 12 TDs again this year he will be the first player in NFL history to get 12 receiving TDs four seasons in a row. Others in the three-season-in-a-row club are Jerry Rice (2x), Marvin Harrison (2x), Terrell Owens, Chris Carter, and Lance Alworth. On the other hand, Randy Moss, Larry Fitzgerald, and Calvin Johnson never had more than two consecutive 12-TD seasons. Or, put another way, only 6 players in NFL history have more 12-TD seasons than Dez, so he's bound to buck the numbers there, regardless.
Except Edelman was drafted in 2009, not 2010. . . .If Aaron Hernandez wasn't such a dumb **** we would have had 2 all pro TEs, an all pro safety, a 100 catch/1000 yard WR out of that draft class with McCourty, Gronkowski, Hernandez, and Edelman all draft in 2010.
Gronkowski is not going to have 30 touchdowns, Dez 1500 yards, and Edelman 100 catches.
With one major caveat. If you were drafting them, the risk of Bryant turning into a bust because of off the field issues, has to be considered, and may tilt the scales. At this point, he may have been around long enough to dismiss that though.It's personnel driven, for me. Given the current personnel of the Patriots, it'd be McCourty. If I was starting a team from scratch, it would be Bryant.
Come on.Dez Bryant is a great WR. Barring injury he'll probably end up as one of the top 10 in history.
I think you're missing the point. Brady is only going to throw the ball so many times.This is actually possible. Gronk is that dominant.
