Leading up to Patriots training camp at the end of July we're unveiling our all-time Bill Belichick Patriots team with a new position coming out almost every day. Today, it's tight end. Click here for the complete series so far.
Rob Gronkowski
Like Tom Brady at quarterback, there really isn't any competition for Gronkowski. The 28-year-old has played five NFL seasons of at least 14 games and in those he's had over 1,000 yards receiving in four of them. The only time he didn't was his rookie year. In his eight seasons, he's been named to the Pro Bowl five times and also to the first-team All-Pro team five times.
Honorable mention: None
