Rob Gronkowski retired today. [View all]

Probably starts the countdown to Canton. I can think of greater Tight Ends from reading about some and watching some, truly don't know how Gronkowski match up to Mackie, or Winslow, but he seemed to be on par with or a little better than Ditka. Regardless, he has been the most dominant Tight End of his playing years, a bruiser that often had players come after him equally hard, hence his injury issues. But even with injuries, he leaves with 3 rings and as the second highest playoff scorer in NFL history.
