Zack Ertz Fantasy Projections: Week 11 vs. the Eagles

NFC East Battle With One-Win Eagles

This should be an interesting week for Cardinals’ tight end Zack Ertz, who faces his former team, the Philadelphia Eagles. This is a game the Cardinals should win, as the Eagles have only one win on the season and are in disarray. It’s the Cardinals’ first NFC East competition of the year and they are projected to win and improve to 4-6 on the season. Ertz, for his part, has only topped 50 receiving yards once this season but has scored a touchdown in three of his last four games. Another TD is a possibility this week against a weak Eagles defense.

Ertz’ Recent Performances

Ertz’s best receiving game this season was in Week 4 when he caught 4 passes for 54 yards against the Panthers. In his four games since, he has caught 12 passes for 151 yards and 2 TDs. Ertz has been a reliable target for Kyler Murray, but he hasn’t been a huge playmaker. If he can give the Cardinals another consistent performance against the Eagles.

Ertz as a Value Play

Ertz is a value play this week because he has a good matchup against a weak Eagles defense, and he will be looking to show his old team what they are missing. If Ertz gets into the end zone, he could be a steal at his current ADP. Ertz is a TE1 this week, with upside for more production if the Cardinals get into the red zone multiple times.

Expected Fantasy Points

Ertz is projected to score 8.4 fantasy points this week, according to FantasyPros. This is a good number for a tight end, and it makes him a solid option for your fantasy team. Ertz is a good bet to finish as a top-10 tight end this week, and he could even finish in the top-5 if he finds the end zone.

Conclusion

Ertz is a good play this week against the Eagles. He could easily finish as a top-10 tight end, and he could even finish in the top-5 if he finds the end zone. If you are looking for a tight end to start this week, Ertz should be at the top of your list.
