They also all have the POTENTIAL to be good players in the NFL. Meanwhile, Zach Ertz would be a full time starter, and we already KNOW he’s a good player in the NFL. Expand I agree the draft is a crapshoot, but players coming off a down year who have been dinged up too are not a sure thing either. Ertz also comes at a cap premium.

Aussie Joe Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 Well .. Rudolph gone for stupid money... TE market is crazy... Starting to feel uneasy ..

I'm not seeing the Howard love...as a former pick #19 overall, has he lived up to that? and he's coming back from an Achilles, which is always worrisome. Expand They gave Brate a deal that they can get out of for free whenever they want. The local writers there have pretty widely speculated that he'll be cut whenever they need money. Question simply boils down to whether or not they need that money this year. Howard has been very good when healthy but he's dealt with a lot of injuries. Either guy would instantly be the #1 TE here though and likely wouldn't cost as much financially or asset-wise as Ertz.

Expand None of the TEs this year (or most years) outside of Kyle Pitts is going to contribute much as a rookie. Buffalo needs a veteran that can play while they continue to develop Knox. 2
Logic Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 The veteran tight end market is just about dried up, and we know that the Bills badly want a veteran tight end. Darren Fells is still out there, I suppose, but the dropoff from Ertz to Fells is significant, and Fells is quite a bit older. I do not think it's a draftee they want to add to the stable. They want a vet. Gotta get the Ertz deal done.
Baba Booey Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 like the Fierermuth kid out of Penn St, but would rather have Ertz. Pitts is long gone top ten.

HappyDays Posted March 18, 2021 Posted March 18, 2021 This is Beane all but confirming that he wants to trade for Ertz but the asking price is too high right now. I bet the Eagles fold eventually. We have the upper hand. 1 2
