Mark Andrews

Andrews turns 30 with clear statistical decline in 2025 (48/422/5, 7.7 PPG, TE #18 PPR) and a falling target share (18% over the last four games). TE values erode fast past 30, and his dynasty trade value sits in Tier 5 with limited recovery runway.

Even as the unquestioned TE1, his target share dropped to 18% inside a crowded pass-catching corps led by Zay Flowers plus emerging WRs (Sarratt, Lane, Bateman). Volume is being squeezed toward the perimeter even with snaps up to 59%.

Isaiah Likely (NYG, 3yr/$40M) and Charlie Kolar both departed, leaving Andrews the clear, contract-secured TE1 through 2027 after his Dec 2025 extension. Rookie additions Matt Hibner (R4) and Josh Cuevas (R5) are late-round depth, not near-term threats, preserving his path to vacated TE volume.

Andrews remains Lamar Jackson's longtime red-zone security blanket, which props up his touchdown floor and offers a usable veteran-TE outcome if new OC Declan Doyle re-emphasizes the position.
