Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Trey McBride

Saturday, October 11, 10:22 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has accrued two games with seven or more fantasy points, and only one of those equated to a TE1 finish. His best game was in the Week 3 loss with Lamar Jackson (hamstring) at the helm. In his first game with Cooper Rush behind center and Isaiah Likely in the mix, Andrews posted two catches for 11 yards on three targets. Despite the fact that the Los Angeles Rams are 19th against opposing tight ends, Andrews has a major uphill battle with how abysmal this offense has looked with Rush. The veteran tight end is projected as a low-end TE2 heading into this matchup, so fantasy managers may want to look for some better options.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride posted season highs in fantasy points and position finish in Week 6 with Jacoby Brissett under center. His value particularly shines in PPR formats, especially after receiving 11 targets in that matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. In Week 7, he'll go up against the Green Bay Packers, who are ranked 30th against tight ends so far this season. They're giving up an average of 17.4 fantasy points per game to the position and have allowed a touchdown in three of their five games. McBride is already Kyler Murray's (questionable - foot) favorite target, and he produced a great game with Brissett, so he remains in the mix for the TE1 overall yet again.
