Isn't it actually a 2 year deal with a get out for the Patriots if Gronkowskis back gives out? There is an option there for the additional years should the Pats want to take it. That's how I understood it from what i read anyway.

Yeah, that came out a bit after I posted about it being one long deal, still if all goes well it's until 2019

I laughed reading that aswell but it's Boston based so what do you expect

He's certainly made a great start

Look who is throwing Gronkowski the ball compared to who Tony Gonzalez has had.

I don't think anyone will ever come close to the stats that Gonzalez has put up in his great career, he's without a doubt the best ever and will be for a long time until someone can get close to him.

Players like Gronk and Jimmy Graham have a chance but don't think they could put up the numbers that they have every year, think Graham is 26 this year so he would have to play well into his 30's to get anywhere near Gonzalez and with Gronkowski theres obviously the concerns about how long he will be able to play.

The fact we have given Gronkowski a contract before Welker even though he still had 2 years left on his rookie deal says to me that Welker isn't in our long term plans and I expect Hernandez to be next in line for a big payday. I hope we give Welker a good deal because he deserves it and we still need him playing at the level that has been, I think he still has 2/3 good years in him.

Get the feeling Gronkowskis off field activities will eventually lead to him wasting his considerable talents. If he keeps a lid on himself the sky's the limit though.

What does he do for off-field activities ?

Doesn't bother me too much what he does(or who he does ) off the field aslong as it doesn't affect his performance on the field, the lucky bugger is apparently banging Kim Kardiwhateverhernameis now, good lad

Didn't think he'd be here type TBH, how can I put this...er... he's not the right shade lets just say
