so i dont know if this is the right thread or not, but how often does everyone expect to see Gronk playing?

I've looked briefly but haven't found much info.

Can we expect to see him more than Crumpler or Hernandez?

I expect him to take more snaps than AH, but maybe not more receptions; but Brady seems to like both

But on playing more that AC, we can only see how they start. By the end of the season he will be, but starting; unsure of.

The most amazing thing is that he didn't miss the Giants game with a groin pull

Gronk destroyed Justin Tuck a couple of times today in one on one battles as he threw Tuck to the ground twice. These were on the TD reception drive.

Wrong thread, but Mayo got killed by Hedge**** on one rush, turned around 180 degrees and then knocked down.

If there's one thing we know about Brady, it's that when he likes someone and is comfortable with them, he goes back to them over and over and over again (Branch, Moss in 07).

I would not be at all surprised if Gronk puts up some very impressive numbers this season. Brady clearly loves the guy. There's no reason that he can't put up some Vernon Davis type numbers this year.

I hope Gronk has an amazing game Sunday as im probably gonna start him over Tony Gonzalez in my Fantasy league.

 

[Snarf]

Yep I'm starting Gronk over Heath Miller as TE2 (Antonio Gates TE1)

Some more on the Gronkowski legend, this from a Buffalo newspaper:

Gronkowskis have quite a weekend - Bucky Gleason - The Buffalo News

About one in 40 college football players reaches the NFL, but Gordie and Diane Gronkowski watched three of their five sons land spots on 53-man rosters in one afternoon Saturday. Rob made the Patriots as a rookie tight end. Chris earned a spot with the Cowboys as a rookie free-agent fullback. Dan, also a tight end, was traded to the Broncos after a strong camp with the Lions.

"Life is about treating people the right way, having the right character and all that," Gordie said. "We talk about it all the time. I've told all of them, 'You guys are gifted in different ways. Don't ever forget where you came from and don't think you're above anybody. You get on the field, think that all day. But when you're off the field, we all [go to the bathroom] in the same pot.'"

The story focuses on the rest of the Gronkowski family rather than the Pats' tight end, but it is still a pretty good read.

Aaron Hernandez says ...

Just saw that Gronk has a Twitter page:

Rob Gronkowski (RobGronk_87) on Twitter

Funny to see on of the people he's following is Bill Simmons, whose avatar is a pic of Gronk himself.

 

[Modest]

GRONKED.

 

[Calciumee]

Great for Gronk getting a TD, and Hernz should have had a TD, but great 1st catch

Brady found him in the endzone today. Gronk is going to definitely be a factor in the red zone.
