An Elite Air Yards Profile Helped Make Mark Andrews a Superstar, But Who’s Next in Line? TE Advanced Stats Deep Dive, Part 2

April 3, 2025

When it comes to fantasy football, receiving production at running back, wide receiver, and tight end is the backbone of strong roster construction. While counting stats such as yards, receptions, and touchdowns helps to tell the story, delving deeper can help fantasy managers identify breakouts before they occur, rather than reacting to last year’s trends.

That is where RotoViz’s Advanced Stats Explorer comes in. With six years of advanced passing, rushing, and receiving data, the Advanced Stats Explorer gives us an opportunity to get ahead of the competition by digging deeper into the data. This can help to both find potential stars and identify players who could be headed for a decline before other fantasy managers see it coming.

Throughout his career, Mark Andrews has combined per-route efficiency with an elite aDOT profile to become a perennial fantasy TE1. If not for Travis Kelce’s dominance, there is a good chance that we would be mentioning Andrews as the best TE of the post-Rob Gronkowski era. While Part 1 of the series belonged to Kelce, Part 2 offers Andrews a chance to shine. But with so many up-and-coming TEs in the NFL, who has a chance to follow Andrews’ path to stardom?
