Kelce isn't a jump ball kind of guy either, yet he is the best TE in the game. Different players do different things well. There isn't only one formula. As for Waller, he's a damn good TE, and others can be somewhat lesser players and still be damn good TE's. Your idea about players only being worthwhile if they are cookie cutters of others is just false nonsense.
I'll still take Gronk over Kelce. Especially come playoff time or the Superbowl. Kelce still makes alot of big plays and draws top defenders and coverage away from the other skilled players.
Our tes have similar skill sets but they don't have much deep passing capabilities or go up and get a ball capab

Yeah he's not. But he's a major weapon who draws top defenders and draws coverage away from the other skilled players and makes big plays. Plus he can play deep.
Our wrs draw all of the coverage away from our tes. They thrive on broken coverages and wide open catches. Mainly checkdown catches. They don't make many contested catches at all .
As we start having success throwing to these wide open tes defenses will start game planning around them instead of letting them wander freely.
The good playoff team defenses will shut down Schultz just like they did #82.
I'm not arguing that Schultz is not a Mediocre te. Hes just OVERINVOLVED as a receiver in too many critical passing plays and drives. Esp 3rd and long. He hasn't shown that he is clutch at even catching a contested ball nor on a game winning drive. He's caught several and much like his predecessor #82 he always Comes up Short
There is production and then there are clutch game winning players.
I'll take Gronk over Kelce any day of the week. I think he is a better te by a long shot because he wins games in every facet of his game esp as a receiver.
Defenses are only gonna give you so much. As more film comes out those limited skillets are gonna shine. Esp playing every passing snap.
Ask yourself this. If it's 3rd and goal at the 12 for the win how good do ya feel about Schultz making the play??? I'll take Pollard, Wilson, or Brown over these tes. To me that's a NoBrainer
