Bill Belichick Press Conference - 12/24/2010 12/24/10

I think there are some similarities. Q: Athletically would you give Gronkowski maybe a little bit of an edge there? BB: I don't know. Mark [Bavaro] is pretty athletic. I'd say they are similar. Q: Related to that, Tedy Bruschi joked earlier in the year about you still looking for the next Mark Bavaro. Do you kind of feel that you have found the next Mark Bavaro or do with the tight ends here have that ideal combination of good hands, good size and...
