"When you get past his famous brother, you are left with a versatile player who isn't overly dangerous as a pass catcher or physical as a run blocker. Glenn Gronkowski has some talent and could offer some scheme versatility, but he needs to make great strides as either a blocker or pass catcher to make his own mark in the league." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
