ARTMONK HOF Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Peter Schrager of Fox Sports reported Wednesday the free-agent tight end has held contract discussions with the Washington Commanders this offseason.

Philadelphia selected him in the second round of the 2013 NFL draft, and he was a three-time Pro Bowler, tallying five seasons with at least 800 receiving yards in his first seven years in the league. Included in that stretch was the 2018 campaign when he posted 116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTMONK HOF Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Tom Pelissero Three-time Pro Bowl TE Zach Ertz is signing with the #Commanders on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million, per source. It’s a reunion for Ertz and Kliff Kingsbury, who got him a ton of targets in Arizona, on a deal negotiated by agent and TE guru @SteveCaric of @WassermanNFL.

LoganF89 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I don’t understand the hate on this. This is completely what I expect us to do. Sign vets that are good players or were studs that are now older in FA and build through the draft. I expect this until we build that foundation. also, it’s “up” to 5 million for 1 year. Not 5 mill guaranteed. I don’t mind the signings at all. we aren’t gonna use cap space on a ton of guys in their prime that are stars. Build through draft. Supplement through FA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has 100 more yards in the last two years combined than Logan Thomas had just this last season. Ertz is done. I'm fine with the signing but its kind of a waste of money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with the assessment of what Thomas gives you in comparison. I also don't believe either is a TE1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor made Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 11 hours ago, lavar703 said: Wasn't he our highest graded defender on a defense ranked in the top 5 in DVOA the season before last? I don't know, but if that means he was better than Payne's breakout sack season, I'd have to disagree. Also if they are angling for getting a 3rd round Comp. pick for Kam Curl, I have no issue letting him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
