Should I Start Mark Andrews?

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.
