Scouting report

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Carolina
Zach Ertz keeps moving up the rankings. He was targetted more than Dallas Goedert last week and ended up with 6 catches for 60 yards. He still isn't where he was the last several years but he would be a good pickup for your bench. For Week 5, keep him on the bench as he ranks a TE2.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Kansas City
Zach Ertz had his best game of the season and we saw a little of the old Ertz in the process. He had a team-high seven targets that produced four receptions for 53 yards and a touchdown.

Although we think Dallas Goedert is the best tight end option, it puts Ertz on the fantasy radar for depth at the position.

Keep him on the bench for Week 4 against the Chiefs despite a below-average KC defense.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Atlanta
Injuries and the emergence of teammate Dallas Goedert have Zach Ertz stock sliding over the last year. He is considered the second tight on Philly right now and will have to earn the trust of the fantasy owners this season.

It's a great matchup this week against the Falcons who were ranked 29th in aFPA to tight ends in 2020. Just wonder how much Ertz will be used. He does have value but only as a TE2 for Week 1.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Dallas
It's been a steady climb for Zach Ertz returning from injury. He had seven targets last week, the most since he has been back. Ertz only had two receptions but it did produce 69 yards. Dallas Goedert is still seeing more time on the field and that hurts Ertz in the long run, but if he keeps getting those targets, he can be an asset.

Ertz faces Dallas who is ranked 5th in aFPA to tight ends. He missed the first game against the Cowboys this season but has had success in the past against them.

We aren't quite ready to put Ertz in the starting lineup, but he is getting better every week and is now a TE2 for Week 16.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Green Bay
Zach Ertz is off the IR, but he has still been limited in practice. He could play on Sunday but expect the Eagles to limit his snaps. For now, he ranks a TE2 and should remain on your bench for another week.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Baltimore
Zach Ertz is in a slump with five catches for 11 yards over the last two games. Don't underestimate the impact Dallas Goedert had when he was healthy, taking away attention from Ertz. The offense hasn't been great for the Eagles but Ertz is usually immune to that.

Next up is Baltimore who is 17th in aFPA to tight ends. With the neutral matchup, we expect Ertz to get back on track. Start him in all leagues and formats as a TE1 against the Ravens. Even if the Philly offense isn't efficient, Ertz is still due for a big game.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Pittsburgh
The Eagles won last week, but Zach Ertz had one of his worst fantasy outings of his career. He managed only four receptions for 9 yards against a very good San Francisco defense. It probably didn't help that Dallas Goedert is out which means even more attention to Ertz.

Ertz will face the Steelers who are 14th in aFPA to tight ends. The inefficiency of the Philly offense is still a mystery but a lot it surrounds QB Carson Wentz. Until he gets right, Ertz's value takes a blow.

Still start Ertz as a TE1 for Week 4. He will probably bounce back with better numbers, but he is not a definite top 5 tight end as he has been in the past and his numbers so far don't even put him in the top 10 for fantasy.
