If that happens - I guess his days of dominance have passed in a hurry.

that rookie TE from AZ is going to be a major force. maybe not his rookie year, but he will be a great TE in the league.

That guy is unreal.

He looks like strictly a blocking tight end the best I could tell from yesteday - but he blocks well from the looks of it.

The other TE that was a high draft pick - the one from Florida - he wasn't impressive.

Hernandez is more of a reciever / te than a true TE. They run the spread at Florida and the TE position is built around catching and scoring TD's there.

Hernandez has decent speed & good hands, though who knows how that will translate to the NFL though.

Gronkowski, on the other hand, is an absolute beast. If he can stay healthy, he will be a force for a long long time.

He is a terrific blocker, and has GREAT hands. Best player to come from the U of A in a long long time (not that it means much). He had a cult like following at U of A.

Was out last year from a back injury, but in the two years he started, he put up unheard of TE #'s. 75 catches, 1,197 yards and 16 TD (that stat alone is ridiculous)

The man had such soft hands, and is so big (6'5 1/2" 265 lbs), that once he has a year or two in the league, even NFL linebackers wont be a match for him. He lowers his shoulders and runs over anyone. Will drag a LB 10 yards after being hit.

You guys got a real player. I hope he stays healthy.

He lost it last year and possibly the year before. It says a lot when he campaigned hard for the Bears to sign him, and Martz never gave any blessing to sign Holt.

Ty Warren is done for the season. That NE's best DL. Well Aaron Schobel is available.
