A decade into his career, and well after he spent this first few years of his career telling everyone he was from Pittsburgh since that is where he finished HS. Never once corrected the media to say he's actually from Buffalo. Even all those times before he played the Bills twice a year.

 

Eff Gronk.

 

Good for him for all the success in his career and the money he has made, sincerely. But as a Bills fan, and Buffalonian, eff him.

Do you want Gronk? arrested for Felonious Assault on White?

What is the statue of limitations for this?

LOL that's a desperate take..............I've never seen him deny his Buffalo heritage and I have seen him talk it up for the past decade.

If they bring in Gronk, I hope the entire defense (or at least the secondary) wraps their soap in towels and pummels him onto the marble floor of the shower, with a particular focus on the back of his head, then throw him out the back door naked. Then the fans who remember his WWE-style elbow drop on Tre can slam him through a few tables. Justice.

f No

 I HATE him for the shot on Tre.

 never forgive that if i ever see him i am going to kick him in the nuts and run like hell shout Tre Day !

[Mat68]

On offense im all for Gronk and Kirk.  Cut Beasley.  Restructure some guys.  Make a trade for an edge and Fa period is a hit.  The versatility with Gronk and knox would be a problem.  The offense could go big run and play action.  Our spread out base personal.  Not all the time but a crazy grouping to go to.

[Buffalo ill]

No.  Gronk can go ***** himself.

[Mark92]

I would take him as a back up to Knox and also run some 2 TE sets.  Knox could learn a few things from him in 1 season.  I do want them to make sure the lockeroom ( Tre White ) is ok with him coming in.  If so, then yes.

This (same for Jarvis Landry). 

 

Yep bring in Jarvis Landry when the Browns release him too.  😉

 

The Bills don't even have a single player under contract for 2022 that was with the Bills when the fragile-stated Aaron Williams got legally blocked into retirement by Jarvis Landry.

 

Fans generally lack the self-awareness to know that they grossly over-react to player interactions on the field.............fans are like the parent who watches their married son or daughter argue with their spouse......and then can never forgive the kid-in-law even after their own child has long forgotten about it.

 

Hanging on to ***** long after the parties involved actually do is just stupid.

It wouldn't be a back up situation.........they'd probably alternate in 11 and the Bills would run a lot more 12.

 

Gronk is the much better player still..........he put up over 800 yards with like 15 yards per reception...........he was still a top 5 TE in the NFL in 2021.

 

Knox is more of a top 20 kinda' TE.    

 

Maybe Knox has room to grow still but the only time in his career when Gronk's per game numbers were as low as 2021 Dawson Knox as a receiver was when Gronk was a rookie..........and even then he was a little better than peak Dawson Knox.

 

And of course Gronk has always been a top blocker,  which Knox improved at this year but is still not the force that Gronk is at it.

Gronk is a top 3 TE all time.  From Buffalo bring a chip home.  Im good with it.  Also, no athlete was made more for a fanbase than Gronk and Bills Mafia.

Id expect heavy 12.  Diggs and Davis are obvious 1 and 2 so having 2 Te sets more is a bind for defenses.  Helps with pass pro.  Most multiple sets can come from 12.  2 guys who can block and attack seams would make for a wild time for defenses.

I mean if I saw him at my cookout or something I wouldn't ask him to leave. But outside of a party guest he can go elbow drop something somewhere

It would be a Hollywood story .Local boy wins his final superbowl with the local team that never won a superbowl before.

This is a dose of reality that most of TSW does not want to hear…they’ve also forgotten what our offense looked like when Knox broke his hand and we rolled with Tommy Sweeney…

[CNY315]

No, I'm not letting nothing go

[FLFan]

Gronk was paid $8 mil last year by Tampa.  If the Bills paid anything close to that to have him on the team Beane would need to fired immediately for criminal incompetence as there is no way he adds that value over and above Knox.   I would hold my nose if he was signed for the veteran minimum, but I would be happier if I never had to hear his name again.

They need a reasonable back up.  That is not Gronk given the Bills salary cap situation.

Yes, we need another TE and Gronk would be a huge upgrade…we don’t know how much he would cost in 2022, or how much a “reasonable backup” would cost…

Kick his supporters on the wall as well. 

This was a hit after play was down and he should have been suspended for more than a game.

[KingBoots8]

If he’s willing to come for cents on the dollar maybe, but the cost to availability ratio is just not in line. He’s going to put up numbers, sure…. But he’s also going to be out a few weeks minimum for injuries. No thanks. The best ability is availability. Put that money someplace else.
