Draft note

by John Paulsen

Going backward, Ertz has finished TE5, TE2 and TE3 over the last three seasons. His catches dipped from 7.3 per game in 2018 to 5.9 per game last year, which is my main concern about his outlook in 2020. The Eagles added Jalen Reagor, Dallas Goedert continues to progress, and DeSean Jackson should be back, so there are more mouths to feed in Philly. If Ertz slips into the late-fifth/early-sixth, he’ll be a value, but I no longer feel confident enough in his workload to recommend him as a third-round pick.

Latest news

Eagles WR Jalen Reagor (labrum tear) will miss at least opener

Pro Football Talk

Aug 30 · 6:46 PM EDT

Jalen Reagor will have to wait a bit before playing in his first NFL game.

He injured his shoulder in Sunday’s practice, and Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports that the Eagles receiver will miss at least the opener after an MRI revealed a small tear in Reagor’s labrum.

Reagor will not require surgery, Davison adds.

Fantasy Impact:

Reagor could also miss Week 2 which is a big loss. The Eagles will likely roll with Jackson, Ward and Arcega-Whiteside the first two weeks. TEs Ertz and Goedert could benefit the most with Reagor out.

PHI TE Zach Ertz - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Cincinnati
Zach Ertz has been consistent the first two games with seven targets in each one. The problem is that is a low number for him and the production hasn't been very good with eight receptions for 60 yards and one touchdown combined. Those aren't Zach Ertz numbers. Part of the problem has been QB Carson Wentz and his inconsistent play and the Eagles offense as a whole looks lost.

This would a good week for Ertz to start putting up some big numbers against a below-average Bengals defense. Cincy is ranked 18th in aFPA to tight ends so the matchup is very favorable.

Start Ertz in all leagues and formats as he is definitely a top 5 fantasy tight end for Week 3. There is hope that Cincinnati will help cure some of the Philadelphia's offensive woes and thay would mean a big day from Ertz.
