He was hardly a stud.

Gronkowski 2018 (SB year): 47/682 (14.5)/3  (65.3% catch rate) 

Good, but nowhere near Gronk good and not a "top TE". Neither of them were Pro Bowlers in those years. They were both at the tail ends of their careers. In fact, both of those guys retired after those years. 

Heck, Owen Daniels wasn't even an above-average TE in 2015 (he was 17th in receiving yards among TEs).

Owen Daniels probably doesn’t belong with the rest, that’s fair, but Gronk’s numbers were down a bit in 2018 because he missed a few games. Almost 700 yards in 13 games is still pretty good though. He came up clutch in the Super Bowl, too. 6 catches for 87 yards. In a low scoring defensive game like that it made a difference.

Anyway, the point still stands with the guys like Kelce, Kittle (did that offense even have any WR’s?), and Ertz.
