Should Dynasty Managers Hold Mark Andrews Until Midseason?

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.

Does Brenton Strange Still Need to Prove Himself in Jacksonville?

Saturday, April 25, 6:30 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange seemed like the clear-cut No. 1 option on the depth chart this offseason, and all signs pointed to him being a strong extension candidate. However, that perception has changed following this week's NFL Draft. The Jaguars made several tight end additions in the draft, selecting Texas A&M's Nate Boerkircher at No. 56 overall and Houston's Tanner Koziol at No. 164 overall. Boerkicher has more of a blocking skill set, but he's certainly capable of catching passes, too. Meanwhile, Koizol is a true pass-catcher who should compete for targets right away. Strange is clearly still the No. 1 tight end here, but there's now less confidence in his ability to fend off competition long-term. The Jaguars sent a clear message that they want some other tight ends to get involved going forward. It's possible that Strange hit his peak last year when he averaged 9.8 fantasy points per game. When extrapolated over 17 games, that's still good enough for a top-15 finish in PPR leagues. However, the new additions certainly place a cap on his long-term upside.
