Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady are back together with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after a trade was worked out with the New England Patriots. Like most big events nowadays, it was a perfect chance for some to poke a little fun at the two guys with the use of some memes. Here's our list of top 10 memes after the Gronk trade.

Julian Edelman must be having a hard time after first losing his quarterback and now Gronk. Joe Exotic from the Netflix show, Tiger King, sums up the moment perfectly.

There was also a famous SpongeBob SquarePants scene with Edelman looking at SpongeBob and Patrick (Gronkowski and Brady) from a distance.

The Carolina Panthers got in the fun reminding everyone of the moment that Gronk wrecked Steve Harvy's lego statue on New Year's Eve.

Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce didn't work out well for the Brooklyn Nets. At least one Twitter user thinks that's what Gronk and Brady will be for the Bucs.

With the addition of Gronk, the Buccaneers offense is loaded, and at least one dog has wide eyes thinking about all the targets defenses are going to have to guard.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper has taken shots at the Patriots before. He seems really pleased that they won't have Gronk or Brady anymore.

There has always been talk about Patriots getting favorable officiating calls. Will that continue with the Bucs? Some people think so.

Danny Woodhead was one of Brady's favorite teammates. He even joked about joining back up with Brady and joining the Buccaneers.

Pro Football Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez hasn't played in the league since 2003. He saw one tight end unretire though, and he is “ready” to get back on a team.

All those memes are great, but there is one that is heads above the rest. Kyle Brandt wants everyone to pump the breaks a bit because there is a new true power couple in Florida. Carole was another one of the stars of Tiger King, and her wedding photo with her husband dressed as a tiger and on a leash is quite the sight.

Brandt wants everyone to remember no matter what happens for the Buccaneers. they are still the number two couple in Florida.
