Which player, coming back from injury, are you least likely to draft for the upcoming season? And say why.



Rob Gronkowski. You are either going to agree or adamantly disagree with this call but there it is. I am tired of drafting him early and him missing half of the season. Over the past four years he has averaged 11.5 games, 55 catches, 850 yards and 7.5 TDs. Great for a draft masters format but tougher when you have to start a decent TE every week. 2014 and 2015 saw him play in 15 games...great! Last year (and 2013) he had major injuries. He had back surgery in December and appears to be back on track....but fool me once shame on you, fool me twice...Now watch him have a monster 16 game season.
