Gronk or...

[wilwhite]

I drafted Gronk hoping he'd turn up one of these weeks and here he is.

But we haven't seen him yet, and my other guy is Olsen against Minny, and Minny's been giving it up to TEs like crazy and Olsen looks like the #1 receiving threat for Cam.

Do I assume Gronk is Gronk, or wait and see since I have a decent alternative?



p.s. 1/2 PPR

The way Brady is playing, I sure wouldn't blame you for playing Olsen.. at least this first week.

Who are the Pats against if its a weak team I might go Gronk. If its not stick with Olsen he has been a pretty consistant. He hasnt been spectacular but he will probably get you double digits from your TE

I have him in two leagues. One league I have Fleener, the other I have Julius Thomas though. The league I own him in with Thomas, I can only start one of them. In the other league, I can start both if I choose... (would have liked to bench Alson last night)

I really have no idea what to do... except I'm trying to trade Gronk or Thomas in that league.

didn't watch the whole game last night, but just saw the just miss bomb from Cutler that could have been a nice 11 point swing if he caught it and kept running.

I'd probably wait on Gronk. I saw a more negative report earlier today but couldn't find it............I doubt he plays.

Heading into Friday, Gronkowski (back/forearm) remains iffy for Sunday's game against the Saints, ESPN.com reports. Analysis: The report suggests that Gronkowski still has not been cleared to play by Dr. James Andrews, but that's an assessment that could change as Sunday's game approaches. Expect an official questionable designation for the tight end later Friday and until further information is available, we'll consider him a game-time decision for Sunday's 4:25 ET kickoff.

same dilemma here. I have him but also have Thomas. I think I'm going to go with Thomas this week, which, of course, means Gronk will go off.

Here is you answer Will. Unless there is a miracle over the next day or two Gronk won't play.

New England Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski (back, forearm) has not been cleared to play by Dr. James Andrews as this time. The team is allowing Gronkowski and Andrews to decide when Gronkowski will be able to play.

Like the above poster has shown Gronk is probably not going to play so I'd stick with Olsen.

I have Gronk in a league as well and I was dead set on starting him until I saw that he might not play. But when he does come back I'd probably play him because Brady is going to be looking for him more times then not because he really can not count on the other guys that he has right now.
