Joe Mama Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 As the season went on, the Bills figured out Doyle was an upgrade over Sweeney. I think Gronk is an upgrade over Doyle at TE2. Quote

After his first year in TB im assuming? Wow. Makes me think this is more likely. Wanted to play another year with his BF, but now that hes gone.... I cant think of a better place to go. Josh/Mahomes are in their own league, and he'd see more targets here than KC, assuming he wants to play with a top qb. 1 Quote
Freddie's Dead Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 ***** NO!!! Enough with this Gronk *****. I don't care if he is from Buffalo, he's a complete POS!!! 1 1 1 Quote

At this point, wouldn't call Gronk much more than mid level. So IMO whoever it might be will take some targets away from Knox. On the other hand adding another TE will also take defensive attention away from Knox so may allow him to be open more. Last couple of weeks of the season the Bills offense seemed to play better when using two TE's so may not be a bad thing overall. Good chance McKenzie is gone, Beasley who knows. So going with Diggs, Davis, 2 TE's and RB may work best. If they want a mid-level TE Gronk is way out of their range...........he was 3rd in receiving yards per game for a TE(behind Mark Andrews and Kelce)....... 5th in yardage with over 800.......6th in yards per catch and 8th in TD's..........and of course he's always been an elite blocker.........he's closer to a top 5 TE in the league still.

Missing as in sitting out, or missing as in memories of past games, thanks to CTE, and whatever concoctions Guerrero had him taking? 🤨 Quote

Turbo44 Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 I think Gronk retires. If he doesn’t I really think he comes to Buffalo on a 1 year $8m contract 1 Quote

That basically means in 2027 we have three of the gold jackets taken first ballot in Brady, Big Ben, and Gronk. Not even up for debate. Like any or all of them IR hate them, they are getting in immediately. I don’t think Larry Fitz was considered active this year so he’ll get in the year before and we’ll deserved. Lol first it’s ok to disagree as long as we try stay civil about it. And your right what a gold jacket year in 5 years Big Ben, Brady, and Gronk.. at least.. Quote

But if he comes to Buffalo I'd expect something like the Emmanuel Sanders deal........a one year deal but with the cap hit split over two years with a voidable year in 2023. Quote
Einstein's Dog Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 1 hour ago, John from Riverside said: Honestly I would do it.....2 TE sets would be interesting. but Didnt Gronk come out of retirement to play with Brady? Why would he not go back into retirement? Because right after the season ended he said his decision wasn't dependent upon Brady. Tampa is looking like a dumpster fire, no reason to go back there. Buffalo seems like a logical potential spot because he considered Buffalo before. It's his home town. I think a lot of us can relate to the thought that if we were a rich, star player toward the end of our career,, we'd like to play for our home town. Of the market price offers I believe the Bills would have one of the best shots - home town, good QB, almost lock for playoffs, superbowl potential. And the Bills roster construction looks like they could use him - Sanders looks out, McK out, Beas questionable. The PFF article estimated the cost of Gronk as $7M. The Bills could figure that out. 1 Quote

Gronk is done. Gronk said in an interview recently that there’s one option for him to play if Brady retires Quote

That won't be popular take here on Ex-Pat-Bills-Drive..........but the Gronks and their business are still part of the community for those of us who actually live here. Tell that to Tre. What Gronk did wasn’t a “football move” or in the “heat of competition.” The play was over and he deliberately tried to take a man’s livelihood away. Eff him, his family, and their business.

Bruffalo Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Gronk isn't going to be effective without Brady. His chemistry with him is the only reason he's still good. Quote
TheyCallMeAndy Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 The parties talked last year, I’m sure they’ll talk this year. Quote
