Step 1 = Trade Gio for a later round pick (Clear 4.1 mil in cap space)
Step 2 = Trade a later round pick for Zach Ertz (Add 8.25 mil in cap hit)
Step 3 = Cut CJ Uzomah (Clear 5.2 mil in space)
Net result is Zach Ertz, who is a clear upgrade as TE1, and 950k more in cap space. All while losing little to no draft capital.
Gee, I wonder why Zach Ertz would be available for a late round draft pick?
NFL TEs have had at least 25 receptions 182 times over the last 5 years. Among those 182 Ertz's 2020 yards/target (4.65) ranks 182nd and his catch% (50.0) ranks 180th.
