Gronk and Gronk ? (1 Viewer)

98.5 The Sports Hub is reporting FA TE Dan Gronkowski has been picked up by New England, joining his brother TE Rob Gronkowski.

Cool. He'll be a primary, if not solely, blocking TE in 3 TE sets. Maybe he is utilized as a FB, considering Morris is now gone and Dan Connolly (who I believe fills in as FB on certain plays) is hurt?

 
Ha, awesome.

I was wondering if they were really going to go with 2 TE's and no real swing FB. This solves that. "Blocking specialist"....

Maybe this frees up brother Rob for more pass catching duty.

How many TE's does New England want?
They only have 2 right now, and were looking to keep Yeatman on their practice squad (he was picked up by Miami on waivers). So, with only two TEs that will be ustilized all season long, they needed some sort of insurance.

Maybe I was thinking of previous seasons where they had like 5. Didn't realize Gronk and aaron were the only 2 this year.

Mills and Yeatman were claimed, I think they were hoping to get at least one or both onto the practice squad.It's rare to have just 2 TEs on the roster for a BB team. I think this is a solid pick up, as they can definitelyuse a strictly blocking TE.

I didn't either, actually. I was trying to think of who else was on the roster besides those two, and had to check their website.

They might use Solder as a possible TE too in certain situations - with the OL situation now relatively stable, there's been some chatter that BB might use Solder in a hybrid TE/T role this season, considering he converted from TE to T in college. Also, considering his frame right now, he looks much more like a TE than a T.

I expect Gronk #2 to catch at least 1 TD pass this season leaving owners of Gronk #1 confused for a while about why they did not get 6 points.

:goodposting: As if having two APs didn't confuse people - and they were on seperate teams."I want Gronk the TE""Which one""The one on New England..." :confused: (Yes, I realize they have different first initials)

I think the safe assumption is no one is talking about Dan Gronkowski.
 
I wonder how many newbs are picking up Dan Gronkowski of the ww thinking he's Rob or potentially trading with someone pulling a fast one?
