Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Tony Pollard

Saturday, November 15, 7:43 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has now finished as a TE1 in each of the last two weeks while hauling in three total touchdowns. He proved last season that he could take a bad start and turn it into a heater in the second half of the year. While this could be the start to a similar run, he'll go up against a solid defensive unit in the Cleveland Browns in Week 11. They're the ninth-toughest defense against tight ends, allowing just 11.76 fantasy points per game to the position with 376 yards and five touchdowns all year. He's averaged 4.3 targets per game over the last three games, and the only other pass-catcher on the team with more is Zay Flowers. So, Andrews is projected as a borderline TE1 this week.

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard had 10 carries for 22 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Pollard also had three catches for four yards on three targets. The 28-year-old veteran scored a season low of 5.6 fantasy points and was out-snapped for the third time this season by backfield mate Tyjae Spears. Since Week 6, Pollard has only been able to eclipse over eight fantasy points once. The former explosive fantasy favorite has become a low-upside, touchdown-dependent flex option for managers. Pollard was been unable to find paydirt for a fifth straight week and has only been able to find the end zone twice this year. Heading into Week 12, Pollard will be a desperation flex option in deeper leagues in a difficult matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
