Week 16 at New York Jets
Playing 94 percent of the snaps last week, Gronk put up a solid 5-54-1 line in Week 15. This weekend he faces a tough matchup on paper against the Jets, ranked third in aFPA to TE's. Gronk is matchup proof, however, and is our top option on the weekend. Start him with full confidence.
Week 15 vs Tennessee
Gronk surprised everyone in Week 14, playing over 60 percent of the snaps, catching all four of his targets en route to a nice 4-87-1 line. This reminds us all that when Gronk is in the lineup, Gronk should be in your lineup. One week healthier, we have returned Gronk to the top of our tight end rankings this weekend.
Week 12 at Denver
Gronk put up his second quiet stat line on the year, with a lowly 2-37 line in Week 11. Missing RB Dion Lewis and WR Julian Edelman, the Patriots offensive sparks faltered slightly in a tough matchup against a solid Buffalo defense, scoring a season-low 20 points. Then again, most teams would love to score 20 points in an off week, just as most non-Gronk owners would love to have "only" eight of ten TE1 finishes from their tight end. This weekend, the Patriots continue to play without a couple key pieces, and face a tough test on the road versus a stingy Denver defense. Nonethless, Gronk is Gronk and is our top tight end option on the weekend.
So that makes this the eleventh consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. We just may see this streak extend to 16 games. If he's healthy, I'll copy this paragraph next week too. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, your'e starting Gronk.
Week 11 vs Buffalo
A career long 76-yard TD capped Gronk's fantasy day in Week 10, putting him at 5-113-1 on the day off seven targets. Somehow with only one multi-TD game on the season, Gronk still has 20 percent more points than fantasy's TE2, and 100 percent more points than fantasy's TE10. This is the Gronk-esque season people who drafted him were hoping for.
This is now the tenth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. We just may see this streak extend to 16 games. If he's healthy, I'll copy this paragraph next week too. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk.
Week 10 at New York Giants
Week 9 was a rare disappointment for Gronk owners. His 4-47 line represents his lowest yardage total to date and only his third non-scoring game of the season. No player can be perfect, though, and Gronk owners have Week 10 to look forward to.
This is now the ninth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. We just may see this streak extend to 16 games. If he's healthy, I'll copy this paragraph next week too. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk.
Week 9 vs Washington
With a signature 6-113-1 line, Gronk finished as TE2 for the second consecutive week. With a 40-646-7 line on the season, four top two finishes and no finish lower than TE11, Gronk owners are as happy as they expected to be.
This is now the eighth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. If he stays healthy, we just may see this streak extend to 16 games. If he's healthy, I'll copy this paragraph next week too. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk.
Week 8 vs Miami
Gronk owners enjoyed Week 7 and Gronk's 11-108-1 line off a team-high 16 targets. Finishing up as the TE2 on the week against the Jets, the 2nd stingiest aFPA matchup, just reminds us he is matchup proof.
This is the seventh consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. If he stays healthy, we just may see this streak extend to 16 games. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk. This is now the seventh week I've copied this paragraph, and I'll copy it next week too if he's healthy.
Week 7 vs New York Jets
A touchdown may have saved Gronkowski's Week 6 fantasy day, but Gronk finished the weekend as a top-10 TE despite a down outing by Gronk standards (3-50-1). This floor on down weeks is one of the many reasons owners drafted Gronk. This weekend, he gets the second stingiest aFPA matchup for TE's in the Jets, but Gronk has time and again proven to be matchup proof.
This is the sixth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings (if by a slimmer margin than usual). If he stays healthy, we just may see this streak extend to 16 games. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk. This is now the sixth week I've copied this paragraph, and I'll copy it next week too if he's healthy.
Week 6 at Indianapolis
With a 4-67-0 line on the day, Gronk finished as TE11 on the weekend. While owners hope for more, it does say something that Gronk's down weeks still put him in the fringe TE1 conversation.
This is the fifth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. If he stays healthy, we just may see this streak extend to 16 games. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk. This is now the fifth week I've copied this paragraph, and I'll copy it next week too If he's healthy.
Week 5 at Dallas
Through three games in his 2015 season, Gronk has two 100 yard games and four TDs, averaging over 100 yards and a TD per game. This is the fourth consecutive week Gronk highlights the top of our TE rankings. If he stays healthy, we just may see this streak extend to 16 games. Simply put: If you drafted Gronk, start Gronk. This is now the fourth week I've copied this paragraph, and I'll copy it next week too If he's healthy.
