Mark Andrews Faces Less Competition in Tight End Room

Wednesday, April 1, 9:44 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is coming off a disappointing season in which he finished as the overall TE16. Andrews played in all 17 games and logged 70 targets (his highest mark since 20220), but most of his receptions were of low value. His 422 yards were a new career low, and he was also held to a modest five touchdowns. Part of the blame can be attributed to a crowded tight end room, and part of the blame can be placed on a Ravens offense that took a step back in 2025. Both problems have potential solutions going forward. The position room is less crowded now that Isaiah Likely has departed for New York, leaving Andrews as the undisputed No. 1 tight end in Baltimore for 2026 and perhaps beyond. Meanwhile, there's a whole new coaching staff and system in place after the Ravens fired head coach John Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Todd Monken. New head coach Jesse Minter is a defensive guy, but offensive coordinator Declan Doyle is a rising star in the industry and should help elevate the Ravens' Lamar Jackson-led offense. All in all, the stars are aligning for Andrews to bounce back in 2026. Despite being 30 years old, Andrews is an intriguing buy-low candidate in dynasty fantasy football leagues this offseason.

Chig Okonkwo News

Chig Okonkwo Instantly Jumping to Fantasy Relevance in Washington?

Saturday, March 28, 9:12 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo could immediately contribute as an appealing fantasy option during his first year with the team. Okonkwo spent his first four seasons with the Tennessee Titans, occupying a modest role in the offense. He consistently finished as the TE21 in PPR leagues each of the last three years. With that being said, in terms of pure stats, 2025 was his best season as he caught 56 of his 79 targets for 560 yards, all career-highs. The Maryland product contributed to the best of his ability in a relatively uninspiring Titans offense. While the Commanders' offense admittedly has some work to do, as well, the presence of quarterback Jayden Daniels and the new-look offensive system under coordinator David Blough could bode well for Okonkwo as he looks to take a major leap. Fantasy managers would love to see him step in and fill the role of Zach Ertz, who finished as the overall TE7 with 654 yards and seven touchdowns as the Commanders' primary tight end in 2024. If Okonkwo can have that level of involvement around the goal line, there's no question that he can be a top-12 fantasy tight end year in and year out. If Daniels stays healthy and the offense operates efficiently in 2026, Okonkwo could end up being one of the biggest steals on fantasy draft night.
