Is Mark Andrews' Expected 2026 Bounce-Back Opening a Sell-High Window for Dynasty Managers?

Wednesday, June 10, 8:59 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews appears to be poised for a resurgence in playing time in 2026 following the departure of former Ravens tight ends Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar in free agency. Partially due to the presence of Likely and Kolar, Andrews had an underwhelming season in 2025. Across 17 games (11 starts), the veteran recorded just 48 catches for 422 yards and five touchdowns on 70 targets. Andrews has averaged just 4.1 targets per game over the past two seasons in Baltimore, so his production could soar with a resurgence in target volume in 2026. However, he's entering his age-31 season and averaged just 6.0 yards per target and 8.8 yards per reception in 2025. The Ravens also used day three selections in the 2026 NFL Draft on tight ends Matt Hibner and Josh Cuevas. In dynasty leagues, Andrews' resurgent value following Baltimore's offseason departures may be opening an ideal sell-high window for managers to take advantage of.

Isaiah Likely News

Isaiah Likely the Favorite Target of Young QB in Spring Practices

Friday, June 12, 9:56 AM

New York Giants tight end Isaiah Likely, who followed head coach John Harbaugh over from the Baltimore Ravens this offseason, was quarterback Jaxson Dart's "favorite target in open practices this spring," according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. The athletic tight end was dangerous on crossing routes, and his needle is pointing firmly up in fantasy football as the 2026 season nears. The 26-year-old former fourth-round pick of the Ravens in 2022 out of Coastal Carolina never had more than 477 yards in his four seasons in Baltimore, but he should be a featured piece of the Giants' offense after he saw a career-low 36 targets in 2025. Duggan writes that the G-Men gave Likely a three-year, $40 million contract based on the projection that he "will thrive" after spending the last four years in Mark Andrews' shadow. We should expect the Giants to "manufacture touches for Likely on screens." RotoBaller has likely ranked as the No. 12 fantasy TE right now, and if receiver Malik Nabers (knee) isn't ready for the start of the season, Likely's role will be even bigger early on.
