I'll ask it anyway!

Keep in mind it's a full keeper league.

Once Brady retires i think's value will hit the floor, but there is no denying how valuable Gronk is to a fantasy team. All things being equal I really need some help from each of you weighing this one out so enlighten me here, PLEASE! who would you take considering it's a full keeper and all other things are equal.

Ebron

or

Gronk

Ok.. try and be rational here Foot.

Tom is 36, signed until he's 41. With today's rules protecting QB's, it's not a shocker he plays it out. And if if he doesn't, or after he retires, just remember how well Matt Cassel played in the system. Even if Brady isn't there, I'm not certain Gronk had a huge let down.

There's NO WAY I'm choosing a guy who MIGHT be a great TE someday, for one who is already there and is only 25.

If Brady retires, the best friend a young QB has is his TE.

Take note - ALL first round TE selections:
Eifert - 2013. 445 yards & 2 TD.
Greshem - 2010. 471/4 (best season was 2012 with 737/5.)
Pettigrew - 2009. 352/2 (best season was 2011 with 777/5.)
Keller - 2008. 535/3 (best season was 2011 with 815/5.)
Olsen - 2007. 391/2 (bet season was 2012 with 843/5.)

As a Lions fan, I hated this pick. Ebron led the NCAA in dropped passes. The Lions have led the NFL in dropped passes the past two or three years.



What that means for FF I don't know, but it isn't good.

Foot. .I think for your own good. . The founding members of the MBBRL are going to get together next year at about the time if the combine. . Little before. . And we're going to perform a binding ritual that will prevent you from watching or reading anything combine related.

For your own good.

Really this deal for me is more about Gronk's injuries over the last two years. I know he is as sure a thing as any if he stays healthy to finish 1 or 2 for TEs but the last two years he has missed a lot of games. That's why i am even considering Ebron. Do I take the bird in the hand or do I try for the 2 in the bush?

Gronk in his two college seasons: 6 TDs, 10 TDs (led team)

Ebron in three college seasons: 1 TD, 4 TDs, 3 TDs (tied for 6th on team)

Of course there's a chance Ebron becomes a touchdown machine, but he certainly wasn't in college.

Don't worry about his injuries. His production per game destroys that. If injury occurs, play the wire. Scott Chandler will be there!

When your bird in the hand is already in the top 3 at his position, arguably #1 when he's in the field. . There is no two in the bush. Best case, absolute best case you get one from the bush. . There is no two. I don't care how great you think this guy might be, he's not Graham, and he's not Gronk, nor will he ever be playing next to Calvin, or with Stafford as his QB... It just ain't gonna happen.
