Mark Andrews vs Noah Fant: Who Should You Start?
Two tight ends who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Mark Andrews (Baltimore Ravens) finished the 2025 season averaging 6.3 fantasy points per game in 17 games. Noah Fant (New Orleans Saints) came in at 3.9 PPG over 15 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.
Mark Andrews carries a 2.4-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.
Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Mark Andrews had 48 catches for 422 yards; Noah Fant posted 34 for 288. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.
One scheduling note: Mark Andrews is off Week 14 and Noah Fant Week 12. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in tight end for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
