Really like that kid.

Guy will takeover for Hernandez.

Being 6'7" is gonna get him a lot of looks in the red zone.

Gronk will probably miss more than 2 games.

These injuries are always downplayed

Except for the patriots, they play injuries up.

As in, a guy that has a good chance to be back by week 3 - was being considered for the PUP list.

I'm just curious if Sudfeld will have value once Gronk comes back. I know NE loves their 2 TE sets, but will they still use them now that Hernandez is gone? If he takes Hernandez's spot, he should still have decent TE value even with Gronk back. I picked up Sudfeld with the last pick in my draft last night and plan on starting him over Jared Cook in week 1.

I think he will absolutely take Hernandez' role once Gronk comes back. Obviously Sudfeld can't line up in the slot, but aside from that - he should be right there.
