Go After Gronk?

[SoShady]

Thinking about going after Gronk. The guys team is in rebuild mode. I have Benjamin who I could offer him as he has a huge need at WR. Think this would be a wise move? I think I have a chance to win it all this year. I think this might be my best chance to do it. As Lynch's value is really up in the air going past this season. I'm leading the league in points scored and my teams only weakness is TE. At the moment i'm playing Mychal Rivera at TE and have Jordan Reed on the bench. Would you go all in or should I stick with what I have? Would Benjamin be enough for a rebuilding team to part with Gronk? I'm a huge Benjamin fan so that could be clouding my judgment. This is a 12 team full dynasty .5 ppr league so what do you guys think?

The only way Benjamin would be enough would be if Gronk were not keeper eligible. Maybe Gordon would get it done, but not Benjamin.

I don't see Benjamin as being enough to steal Gronk away. Perhaps you can offer Benjamin for a less "sexy" TE.

Olson perhaps? (although he's been a dud of late).

Yeah I wouldn't trade Gordon for Gronk or Benjamin for Olsen. Guess i'll shoot it over to him and see what happens.

I think Gronk is the best non-QB keeper. I would give Gordon in a heart beat.

Gordon is for real, 1 misstep away from being out of the NFL.......I think?

That caps his upside in dynasty, for me personally.
Really tough to weigh legal troubles vs injury issues, when the legal troubles have been to the extent of Gordon's.
Gronk would be awesome on any team with any QB, and I think the same could probably be said of Gordon after last year's revolving shit show at CLE QB.

I'd rather have Gronk though, when it really comes down to it. Especially after seeing him get pissed off and Gronk-mode all over Colts D for the 26yd TD last week. That was a bad ass run after the catch.

I bet we see more young studs break into the NFL at WR over the next 3-5 years than we will at TE. Gordon, in theory, would be easier to replace than Gronk, imo.
