Let's assume that Gronk will NOT be "fine" for the sake of discussion.
Let's further assume that BB will find out in the next week or so that Gronk will not be ready on Day 1 and could be out for a while thereafter.
To be clear, these are just assumptions. They are not predictions. There's no need to debate in this particular thread whether Gronk will, in fact, be OK for all or part of next sesson. Go to the main Gronk thread for that conversation, please.
My focus is on what Bill might do if he knows or has good reason to believe he will not have a lot of Gronk next season.
Specifically, what do you think Bill should and will do under those circumstances? Or will he do anything differently at all? Do you think he should?
Will he augment TE? Will he dig deeper into the wallet at WR? Offer Sanders a contract? Make a trade for a WR? Short Herbalife stock? Fantasize about Kate Upton?
What will he do?????
I think worst case it's an early season situation which I think can be filled by Ballard adequately. I also suspect this is part of the reason Fells was retained and Michael H was tendered. If this was a full season situation it's really tough because unless Detroit cuts Johnson Jr their really isn't another player that offers an undefendable skill set like those guys.
Either way Gronk healthy or not healthy we need to draft at least 1 WR just to be able to put an offense on the field.
