Ashton Jeanty is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 12.8 PPG to Mark Andrews's 6.3 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Ashton Jeanty is the better fantasy play this season.

Cross-position decisions depend on league format. In half-PPR, Ashton Jeanty (12.8 PPG) is the higher-floor play. Mark Andrews (6.3 PPG) could win a specific week on touchdown variance. For FLEX spots, lean toward the player with the softer defensive matchup that week rather than defaulting to season averages.

High confidence: stats strongly favor the leader, and the gap is unlikely to close on matchup alone.

Fantasy Tiers

Ashton Jeanty: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) RB (ranked #17 at the position). Mark Andrews: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) TE (ranked #27 at the position). Comparing across positions, raw PPG is less useful than positional scarcity. A Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) RB is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) TE in most league formats.

Ashton Jeanty vs Mark Andrews: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Ashton Jeanty (RB, Las Vegas Raiders) against Mark Andrews (TE, Baltimore Ravens) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Ashton Jeanty averaged 12.8 PPG in 2025 over 17 games, while Mark Andrews posted 6.3 PPG across 17 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Ashton Jeanty is a buy in trades where the other manager is chasing upside at a different position. Mark Andrews is a hold unless you can flip him for a positional upgrade elsewhere on your roster. Dynasty outlook: Ashton Jeanty (age 22) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds. Mark Andrews (age 30) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining.
