All you Gronk Owners Who are you streaming at TE while he is out?

Man such a drop off after Gronk. I am looking at Rudolph or McDonald as options.

 

Maybe Rodgers from Packers?

 

What TE are some of you gronk owners going with.

 

Someone else picked up Chandler in my league, nit that I wanted him. I dont think he will get a lot of looks cuz he is way to slow and I expect the Pats to reply more on Blount this week.

Mcdonald might be nice this week, gabbert been using him alot, but like you said it's a huge drop off after him. I like brent celek also and zack miller if bennett is out. if there avail

Chandler had quite a few targets last week even when Gronk was still in the game.

Yes with Gronk in the game. But I question how well he can do now that Gronk isnt there to take all the attention.

Only problem is the Bears have been very good against the pass as of late. I believe a read a stat where they are one of the teams to give up the least amount of points to TE's

Rudolph is a guy I was able to pick up on many of my teams for this weeks game . Not a Gronk owner so I'm not sure that counts . I think Chandler is a solid pick , but I've got this feeling that Lafell might have a very good game .

I picked up Rudolph in my re-drafts where I had Gronk.

 

I like Rudolph's rapport w/ Bridgewater lately (13 catches on 19 targets, 159 yards and a TD last two weeks against NFC playoff teams). Another positive w/ Rudolph is that he's the most targeted player in the red zone for Minnesota. His 9 RZ targets lead the team, and only Mike Wallace has more than 4 RZ targets this season. All three of Rudolph's catches in the RZ have gone for touchdowns as well.

 

Paired with the Seahawks' inability to stop opposing tight ends and I think you have a pretty solid filler for as long as needed.

 

The only hesitancy I have with Rudolph is that he's not exactly built out of bricks and cast iron. Though, ideally, he would serve as a one week fill-in for Gronk.
