Austin Hooper News
Monday, March 9, 9:40 AM
Free-agent tight end Austin Hooper is signing a one-year, $3.25 million deal with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Hooper was originally drafted by Atlanta in the third round in 2016 out of Stanford. The 31-year-old veteran spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Falcons and was a Pro Bowler with them in 2018 and 2019. He then bounced around with the Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans, Las Vegas Raiders, and New England Patriots. Hooper hasn't been as productive as he was in his final two seasons in Atlanta, and in his return, he'll be a backup to TE Kyle Pitts Sr. In 16 regular-season games (six starts) for the Patriots last year, Hooper had just 21 catches for 263 yards and two touchdowns. Unless Pitts is traded or injured in 2026, Hooper won't be on the fantasy radar in redraft leagues this fall.

Mark Andrews News
Monday, May 4, 7:57 AM
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews entered this offseason as an intriguing player to target in dynasty fantasy leagues, but now, he's more of a "hold." Just two months ago, the Ravens let Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar depart in free agency, leaving Andrews atop an otherwise barren tight end depth chart. With the Ravens intent on throwing the ball more, it seemed like the veteran tight end could be due for a bounce-back year. That still should be true, but the Ravens' draft process complicates Andrews' long-term outlook. The team traded up to select SMU's Matthew Hibner, who could be the tight end of the future in Baltimore. He won't have a large role right away, but there's a chance that he could eventually become the Ravens' No. 1 tight end, especially since Andrews is in his thirties. Dynasty managers would be wise to hold Andrews for now, and then sell high on him when he strings together a few big weeks during the regular season. After all, he has fallen to TE17 in the latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
