Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Ja'Tavion Sanders

Saturday, November 8, 9:54 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finally broke through for a top-five finish at the position in Week 9 with two touchdowns against the Miami Dolphins. The Ravens' offense looks like it's already back on track with Lamar Jackson under center, but Andrews didn't particularly see a ton of targets in that Thursday night blowout. In fact, Isaiah Likely saw one more target and gained 38 more yards, but Andrews cashed in on the touchdowns. While the Minnesota Vikings present a favorable matchup, the uncertainty of Andrews' involvement is always the biggest risk. He projects as a borderline TE1 this week, but he's not exactly a surefire start like he has been in years past.

Ja'Tavion Sanders has barely contributed to the Panthers' passing game this season. In six games played, Sanders has 16 receptions for 116 yards while averaging 4.4 PPR Fantasy Points Per Game. Last week against the Green Bay Packers, Sanders caught his only target for five yards. Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints in Week 10, who allow 14.54 points to tight ends, ranking 19th in the league. But Sanders has not shown us any reasons to believe he can take advantage of the matchup. Tetairoa McMillan, the Panthers' top pass-catcher, was limited in Friday's practice with a hamstring injury and is questionable to start on Sunday. Although more targets would be available for other Carolina pass-catchers if McMillan does not play, the fantasy outlook for Sanders does not change much at all. He has not delivered enough results to be worthy of any consideration. Sanders is not rosterable in all formats until further notice.
