Now, do I think that the TE, even a transcendent one like Gonzo, should be a cornerstone? No. But that's a different debate entirely.
Bottom line is that Gonzo had a profound impact on games, and I think too often the best players are undervalued because of larger issues of incompetency in the organization.

Totally agree. Tony wasn't your prototypical TE. I also would consider a guy like Shannon Sharpe a playmaker.
