So what does he have to send back to you at TE? This appears to be a TE premium league and leaving yourself with Pitta/? is like just mailing it in.
He has Higbee , Sims , Swoope , Witten , Fleener
Yuck...no wonder he is after Ertz. You mentioned something about Miller? Who is Miller and I don't see him on your roster? My issue with Pitta is that while he did remain healthy this season he played a total of 7 games over the previous 3 seasons. I'd also add that he was an "all or nothing" option this season and both his TDs came in the same game. He's a guy I wouldn't mind as a backup to a stud but would not want to be starting him on a regular basis.
Yeah Z.Miller I'm sorry I couldn't fit another guy in the sig lol I'll fix it somehow though... What do you think about Zach this year in Chi with a mess WR core ?

I'm a big fan of Cameron Meredith this season and expect a pretty big year. I also figure Howard to continue to have a considerable contribution to the passing game as well. Miller is probably the safest pick to be the next best option at WR/TE behind Meredith but there is uncertainty at what Chicago may do at WR and questions with Glennon at QB.

Allow me for a moment to go more into a general comment about things I see in your strategy and where I think you need to be careful. A number of years ago the commissioner of one of my leagues liked to reach on players. He had a tendency to look past the top handful of guys and pull someone like a Miller up in his rankings with the idea that "he's due for a big year". His biggest mistake was counting on multiple guys like this in his starting lineup. I don't see a LOT of that on your roster but from some transactions I see you making or considering just be sure to proceed with some caution.

Believing that Miller should have a very good year is one thing and altogether different than putting him in your lineup every week. Though I do like him more than Pitta, I feel more comfortable with Miller as my #2.

In dealing Ertz and leaving yourself with Miller/Pitta, I'd be wanting the other owner to overpay. You need an incentive to move off him as a dependable option to one of the other two. I do feel better about making a trade here knowing you are leaving yourself with both options rather than just Pitta.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

Meredith is my man I hated letting him go but it was in a package that got me Julio I had to do it

Yeah I mean after my main team is all set I like taking chances , But I hear you about Pitta and Miller pretty iffy to count on especially in a TE bonus league.. I think if I wait him out he will offer more he is a Philly fan to so that helps lol

JMatt , Parker , Ertz , Rawls
for
Tyrell Williams , Crowell , Higbee

What should be taken off if anything from either side ?
Not even remotely close to me, JMatt/Parker side by a mile
How about JMatt , Ertz for Tyrell , Crowell plus something small ? ... I think I can get Gronk for Crowell and something the guy that has him needs RBs bad
