Default Gronkowski vs Jimmy Graham

Bennett.

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

Feels like the Witten/Gates argument to me.

Gronkowski seems like the more well-rounded TE, so I would take him. That's just me though.

I want a TE that can block well. To me that is Gronk.

Gronkowski for sure.

I like Graham but I think he's cut more out of the mold of Antonio Gates' mold of primarily being a pass-catching TE.

I think Gronk is more of a complete TE the way Jason Witten is.

Does Graham not block?

It depends on what you want your offense to do. If you're more of a passing offense, maybe you go with Graham because he's 6'8 compared to Gronk who is 6'6. Those are some big targets. Both are fast too.

I just dont know how good a blocker Graham is.

I'll take Gronk. I think he's the better all around, much like Witten.

Rob Gronkowski. He's a much better blocker than Graham and equally as explosive of a reciever.

Graham isn't really strong at the point of attack, but the Saints don't really utilize him in that manner anyways. BTW, both Graham and Gronkowksi are 6'6".

Itsreally tough to say. Their receiving numbers are really too similar and like I pay attention to or see either enough to say much about their blocking. So I have no comment

Gronkowski.

Graham is a WR masquerading as a TE.

That describes pretty much every tight end nowadays.

Gronkowski. He's the best young TE in the league. Hands down.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.
