4. Zach Ertz

A three-time Pro Bowler, multiple teams will be chasing the signature of Zach Ertz. After a stellar career with the Philadelphia Eagles, highlighted by a Super Bowl win over New England, Ertz was traded to the Cardinals ahead of the deadline this fall.

While with Arizona, the veteran tight end caught 56 balls from Kyler Murray for 574 yards and three touchdowns. Those numbers came in 11 games for the NFC West team. Unfortunately for Arizona, the team couldn’t get past the Rams in the Wild Card Round.

Now, Ertz is all set to be a free agent once the new league year opens up. Fans in Philly are keeping their fingers crossed for a reunion, but that seems unlikely. The same can’t be said for Ertz going back to Arizona.

Ertz recently said that he’d like to re-sign with the team. He enjoyed his time with the organization and wants to keep making plays for Murray and the offense. If the Cardinals want to get that done, the front office needs to connect with his agent as soon as possible.
