I am still picking kelce. But without a doubt it is a huge factor when comparing two tight ends who are both elite receivers.

When the yards aren’t close nobody will care about blocking. Kelce’s job is to make plays catching the ball and he is literally a #1 WR level producer catching the ball in the NFL.
His blocking is more then adequate.
All the guys on the top TE are judged by catching the ball. You yourself used Gates as some level of comparison. He was known for one thing.
Blocking is cool and all but it’s not catching 10 passes for 120 and a TD.
