BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: There is nothing false about acknowledging Zach Ertz's bad start to the season. Back-to-back duds of 5.4 and 1.6 PPR points are all Zachary did to start the 2021 season, pretty much confirming our fears about his being absolutely washed-up and done for good in the fantasy world. Turns out we're widely wrong by making that statement, folks.
Since Ertz played those two first weeks in a similar role to that of late--in fact, Zach Ertz played a higher snap share in those two games than he's done in the past two--and put up consecutive middling performances, Ertz regained some of his mojo finishing as the TE7 of W3 and TE10 this past Sunday (pending MNF). Ertz did it by scoring 15.3 PPR points against Dallas a week ago with a 7-4-53 receiving line and a TD, and he was able to finish with a bulky 8-6-60 line yesterday facing Kansas City.
In a perfect world, we would prefer to watch Ertz crossing the goal line more often than he's done (once) so far this season. But we can't really complain given the projections and expectations were putrid just a month ago. Dallas Goedert is still the highest-scoring fantasy TE on the Eagles roster, but that's only because he's got a couple of touchdowns to Ertz's one. Goedert is seeing fewer targets, and hadn't it been for those TDs he would still have to put up a 10+ PPR-point game this season. 2021 Ertz is not 2019 Ertz, surely, but he's still a player to have rostered in all deeper formats and a nice streaming option for those in shallower leagues.
