Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is looking to bounce back in Week 2 after a disappointing opener against the Bills in which he recorded just one catch for five yards. While the box score was discouraging, the underlying usage tells a more positive story. Andrews logged 75% of Baltimore's offensive snaps and ran routes on 72% of Lamar Jackson's drop-backs, showing he remains a featured part of the passing game. Fantasy managers shouldn't overreact to the slow start, especially with a matchup against the Browns on deck. Cleveland allowed five receptions for 40 yards to Bengals tight ends in Week 1, and their aggressive pass rush led by Myles Garrett could force Lamar Jackson into more quick throws. That bodes well for Andrews' involvement.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has improved his numbers each year over the first three seasons of his career. Last season, he finished with 111 receptions for 1,146 yards and two touchdowns on 147 targets. He finished as the TE2, despite having the fewest touchdowns among the top 11 at his position. A positive regression seems to be plausible when it comes to that department, and given good health, he should be able to produce 100 catches and over a thousand yards yet again. In Week 1, RotoBaller has him projected to score 13.1 fantasy points, which would leave him second to only Brock Bowers. As long as he's on the field, McBride is a must-start in all fantasy formats.
