Breaking: Glenn Gronkowski (Rob's bro) will forgo his final season at Kansas State and declare for the NFL Draft, his father tells @SInow.

NEXT GRONK UP

Kansas State's Glenn Gronkowski is living up to his namesake

FB/TE type. any idea where he might go?

FB/TE type. any idea where he might go?

I think he'll be lucky to be draft able:

The 6-foot-3, 234-pounder touched the ball only 16 times all season for the Wildcats, who lost 45-23 to Arkansas in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl on Saturday. He totaled 45 rushing yards, 76 receiving yards and two touchdowns this season.

Patriots short-handed Sunday, but optimistic on health front for playoffs

I think in th right system he could be effective. No reason why he can transition tomTE or H back. I think he will probably be a 3rd day to UFDA pick. Of course the Pat's should grab him, if nothing else, just fo the fun of having two Gronks again.

 

[JerseyShore99]

I could see him transitioning to TE, all of highlights remind me of a shorter Rob Gronk, not sure where he goes but he seems like a Day 3-UDFA type

I'd love to see a power package with Gronk, Chandler, Williams, (insert cheap power back), Iosefa, Devlin, and Lil' Gronk

I really didn't watch many Kansas State games this year (none actually) but Glenn reminded me of Nick O'Leary from Florida State, currently a Buffalo Bill the few times I seen him.

He seems like a hybrid FB/TE. Not a traditional FB in the sense of a Develin, but too small to be a TE. Question is how's his athleticism? If he's able to get separation, in the right offense, with the right QB, he can have a NFL career.

he must like his chances, he had another year of eligibility.

The Gronk clan claims he's a better athlete than GRONK.

Quite honestly don't see the harm in taking a flyer on him on day three. If anything it might have a positive effect on Big Gronk.

There is another brother of a famous football star worthy of consideration at the same position. JJ's brother Derek Watt. Roster flexibility:

Yup. If we are drafting a fb, might as well draft the one who plays like a fullback.

 

[HawaiianPatsfan]

might we see Gronk to Gronk TD passes?

 

[manxman2601]

 

[everlong]

One can never have enough Gronks.

 

[I.M. Fletcher]

Actually encouraged he fits well as a fullback. I didn't think he had the girth for it.

 

[I.M. Fletcher]

Kyle J. was one of my favourite prospects when he came out.

Am I actually warming up to pint sized gronk?

 

[I.M. Fletcher]

And one more.

Kansas State football: Glenn Gronkowski out to make name for himself at Senior Bowl

Sounds like a really intelligent kid.

GRONK claims Glenn is the most athletic of the Gronks.
