Robert Gronkowski
Rob Gronkowski was often deemed as the standard of greatness, ever since he entered the league. The former New England Patriot’s second-round pick in 2010 was a dominating receiving and blocking force who went onto dominate each of his opposing line-ups, whenever he was at full health.
Although the likes of Travis Kelce and has developed into marquee franchise blocker over the years, NFL fans, recently went onto compare him with prime Rob Gronkowski. Plenty of football fanatics pointed out how Kelce is mightily talented but would be nowhere near Gronkowski, when the latter was at his prime.
To those who live in a parallel universe and are unaware about the legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski – he is a 3xSuper Bowl Champ, a 5xPro Bowl selection and a 4xFirst tea All Pro-selection.
When Rob Gronkowski called time for the first time in his career, not many acknowledged his potential as the ‘greatest ever’ tight end. But since return in the 2020 season alongside Tom Brady in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers showcased just why, he has the potential to take over the league.
