I suppose many would argue he could retire tomorrow and he would be in, but I would disagree with you, or say it is argumentative at the least. Terrell Davis played more games than Gronk's current total (with roughly four seasons at his peak) and TD will not make the Hall despite being a Super Bowl MVP, a dominating runner and at one point perhaps the best non-QB in the league.
Here is a brief article showing that it's nearly impossible to get in with less than seven years, as all of the members with less are from a different era.

Gronkowski might be the best tight end of all-time to win a Super Bowl (even by accomplishments, not just talent) as many great TEs, particularly of this era, never even made it to the big game.
So, how many more seasons do you think Gronkowski needs to play, and at what level, before he becomes an obvious Hall of Fame shoo-in?
