Here’s a tight, Reddit-informed take on Mark Andrews (BAL, TE1/TE1-TE2 range) for 2025.

1) 2025 fantasy outlook (concise ranges)
- Target/receiving floor: roughly 65–85 receptions, 700–900+ yards.
- TD proxy: likely 4–8 TDs (higher if red-zone targets stay consolidated to him; could dip if Hopkins carves out a big red-zone role).
- PPR expectation: solid weekly floor with multiple Week-winning ceiling weeks on volume and red-zone involvement.
- Peak scenario: Hopkins’ presence is manageable; Andrews remains the Ravens’ top pass-game weapon, yielding a top-5 TE ceiling if TD regression isn’t severe and health cooperates.
- Worst-case scenario: Hopkins takes meaningful red-zone targets, Likely misses time early, and Andrews’ target share contracts enough to push him into low-end TE1/TE2 territory.

2) Sentiment snapshot from Reddit/FF Hound context
- Mid-round bust risk: Consistent caution from FF Hound and some analysts that Andrews could underperform ADP due to Hopkins’s arrival and changing red-zone dynamics.
- Value/league-winner perspective: Several postings (Rotoballer piece) flag Andrews as a potential league-winner at his ADP if the offense continues to produce, and if you grab him at a value spot.
- Mixed top-end chatter: Others treat Andrews as a stable top-5 TE with proven red-zone efficiency; a few analysts sharply push back on the idea of him being “sleeper” at his typical ADP.
- Injury/role caveats: Training-camp notes highlight Isaiah Likely’s foot issue (6-week optimistic return), which could temporarily boost Andrews’ targets, though Hopkins’ signing tempers that lift in the long run.
- Zay Flowers/WR1 dynamics: Flowers likely eats some target volume, but the consensus in the threads is that Andrews remains a primary red-zone/short-area target and a weapons cluster around Lamar Jackson helps him maintain a high floor.

3) Key discussion points to watch in 2025
- Hopkins effect: Expect some red-zone target dilution for Andrews, but not a full collapse; Andrews’ career TD rate is solid, and the Ravens have used him heavily inside the 10 historically.
- Likely injury impact: If Likely misses early games, Andrews may see a short-term spike; longer-term impact depends on Likely’s status and Hopkins’ utilization.
- Zay Flowers’ role vs Andrews: Flowers is a high-usage target, but Andrews’ role as the sure-handed inside target and red-zone connector should keep him relevant even with Flowers in the mix.
- Schedule/pace: Ravens’ pass volume improved in 2024; if that trend continues, Andrews stays in the TE1 equation even with another weapon added.
- Draft value vs. Engram/Hockenson: The “mid-round bust” warnings vs the “league-winner” hype create a real value split; Andrews is not a slam-dunk top-3 pick in all formats, but he has a high floor and weekly spike potential.

4) Draft strategy and actionable tips
- ADP anchor: Expect roughly TE6-range ADP (roughly around pick 75 in standard formats); be prepared to pay up or pivot based on league format and other needs.
- Value plays: If you miss Andrews, you’ll likely be chasing later TE options; if you’re comfortable with some TD regression risk, he’s still a high-floor pick.
- Handcuff/mitigation: Consider rostering Hopkins or monitor Likely’s health as a hedge; if Likely returns slower than hoped, Andrews’ target share could hold steady longer.
- Best-ball/season-long approach: In 1QB leagues, Andrews is worth a bite at the mid-round TE spot for weekly ceiling; in best-ball, his top-tier upside remains compelling.
- Schedule-based pivots: If matchups emphasize Ravens passing in favorable weeks, he becomes a priority start; if early-season usage shows Hopkins stealing red-zone looks, you may pivot more to streaming or lineup-adjusting other weekly options.

5) Bottom line
- Andrews remains a high-floor, high-ceiling asset in 2025, but his value carries risk due to Hopkins and potential share shifts. Expect a top-6 TE floor with weekly spike weeks, contingent on health and how the Ravens divvy targets between Andrews, Hopkins, Flowers, and Likely. If you can land him at the lower- to mid-TE1 price, he’s a viable anchor; if you’re chasing top-3 upside, you’ll want clear evidence of red-zone target stability or a favorable Week-by-Week schedule.
