The Bottom Line

Zach Charbonnet is the better fantasy play this season.

Cross-position decisions depend on league format. In half-PPR, Zach Charbonnet (10.7 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.

Fantasy Tiers

Mark Andrews: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) TE (ranked #27 at the position). Zach Charbonnet: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB (ranked #28 at the position). Comparing across positions, raw PPG is less useful than positional scarcity. A Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) TE is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB in most league formats.

Mark Andrews vs Zach Charbonnet: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Mark Andrews (TE, Baltimore Ravens) against Zach Charbonnet (RB, Seattle Seahawks) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Mark Andrews averaged 6.3 PPG in 2025 over 17 games, while Zach Charbonnet posted 10.7 PPG across 16 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.

Mark Andrews has his bye in Week 13, Zach Charbonnet in Week 11. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Zach Charbonnet 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: Mark Andrews (age 30) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining. Zach Charbonnet (age 25) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds.
