But if you don't have Rob Gronkowski or Jimmy Graham or Greg Olson, it's not going to work. Right? Like it takes a unicorn type of tight end to do that.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Gronkowski exemplifies the elite tight end talent needed for 12-personnel success.

Gronkowski is cited as an example of a unicorn-type tight end who could effectively execute the 12-personnel heavy tight end scheme that the Patriots ran in 2011; the source notes that without elite talent like Gronkowski, Jimmy Graham, or Greg Olson, the 12-personnel strategy does not work.
