One more reason Jimmy Graham is better than Gronkowski
 

Whether he’s apologizing for lending his jersey to a porn star or dancing shirtless hours after losing the Super Bowl, Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has a tendency to make eyebrow-raising public appearances. And now we have another.

In an appearance at the University of Rhode Island on Thursday night, Gronkowski agreed to play the oh-so-hilarious “F, marry, kill” game. His choices were Betty White, Rex Ryan and Tim Tebow.

“I would ‘F’ Tebow, to take his virginity,” Gronkowski said.

I’m guessing Gronkowski would choose to marry Betty White and kill Rex Ryan, but that part wasn’t included in the video that’s making the rounds.


Gronkowski raises eyebrows again

Why do we care?

Quotes from GRONK should be a close second to quotes from drunken female Hollywood socialites...

One day, when he finally retires, he'll be one of the former players that are flat broke in five years, calling on the NFL to give him a handout, or sueing the NFL for injuries obtained while playing such a dangerous sport.

I'm a die hard SAINTS fan but numbers don't lie.gronk and GRAHAM
both had spectacular seasons, but you hafta tip your hat to the IDIOT.when
You keep looking four reasons your guy is better, all they gonna say is
Scoreboard.....but clearly, GRAHAM makes better choices....

well obviously gronk wouldnt be allowed in the military...

Don't ask Don't tell!

That's a bit of a simplistic way of looking at it. Graham has been playing football for a grand total of 3 years while Gronkowski has been playing football most of his life. Yet Jimmy was only slightly behind Gronk in numbers, and he actually broke Kellen Winslow's tight end record first before Gronkowski was thrown a couple bones late in the game to pass Jimmy.

But here's the main point you are missing. The Patriots offense is built around the tight ends, whereas the Saints don't feature anyone. We spread the ball all over the field and it's why we broke records last year. If Drew threw the ball to Jimmy 15 times a game, he would have blown Gronkowski away. Jimmy Graham is a tremendous athlete. Gronk is just a lumberjack, who the league will adjust to much more easily.

Ok where is his filter. (
“I would ‘F’ Tebow, to take his virginity,” Gronkowski said.) Thats wrong

As much as I like Jimmy Graham, I'm a little disappointed in how easily he goes down. You'd think he be crushing those LB's and DB's but he usually goes down on the first hit. I've been re-watching the season so don't try to say it's because they all go for his knees or ankles cause that ain't so. I'd like to see him get more physical with the ball after the catch and dish out some punishment to defenses, then he'd get more YAC and Gronk wouldn't be in the same league.

Keep getting 1000+ yards a season and he can go down as easy as he wants to... :mrgreen:

That dude, will fade out soon. The way he parties and carries on. He screw up big time soon enough. I'll keep Jimmy all day long.

That's part of history now, and no longer in effect.


Gronkowski was also helped by the fact that he was paired with another monster TE in Hernandez, which caused even more match up problems for the opposing teams.

Who would I rather have playing TE for the Bucs?

Easy.....Graham. Hell, I would take Hernandez over Gronk.

A)Gronk, to me, is more of a 'system' TE as he has a living legend to throw to him. Brady makes very average WRs/TEs look like studs. It's his trademark. like someone said, they have another great TE in Hernandez. That to me is like having a combo of Tony Gonzalez and Vernon Davis on the same team. There will be mismatches galore on every snap. (I know....maybe a bit of an exxageration on the comparison)

B)Dude appears to be complete moron off the field. Who says they want to bang a dude to take their virginity. How does a thought like that cross one's mind?

C)I like Graham and I know he is a very well-rounded player (obviously), but more importantly, he came up from some adverse **** to become an elite TE in the NFL. Don't let this guy go. I'd be ecstatic if the Bucs had a TE of his caliber. Winslow is not that TE.

another victim of a violent culture..


I sort of admire his honesty...
