Admit it, we're all curious what exactly it's like to be Rob Gronkowski. And all a bit jealous of the life the Patriots fun-loving All-Pro tight end leads.
Well, thanks to former Yankees star Derek Jeter's budding media empire, we can all get a sneak peek into Gronk's world when his autobiography is released later this summer by Jeter’s publishing company, according to the Boston Globe.
In a more serious matter, the Globe relays that the NFL suspended Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount for a single game due to violations of the league's drug policy, dating back to his time with the Steelers last offseason.
The* Boston Herald* also has details of the Blount suspension. The Herald blog addresses the unlikely possibility that the Patriots could draft **Nebraska star pass rusher Randy Gregory**.
The Herald also has a business story noting that former Patriots cornerback Will Allen – who spent his only season in New England on injured reserve in 2012 – has been charged with fraud in an alleged $31 million Ponzi scheme.
The Providence Journal begins a series of Patriots draft previews with a look at the guard prospects.

And Patriots fans probably won't argue the vote that named Super Bowl XLIX the greatest NFL game of all time.
