Zach Ertz – TE 7

In the final 5 games of the season last year, Zach Ertz finished with 40 receptions for 443 yards and 3 touchdowns. That is roughly 12 fantasy points per game for a tight end and would be considered a must start. I think Ertz continues to trend as a legitimate starting fantasy tight end, ranking just behind the tier 1 tight ends. I have Ertz as a TE1 drafted around round 9 or 10 with no need to have a back up TE if you select him.
