And if they win this year, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/los-angeles-chargers/grading-espns-chargers-ravens-mark-andrews-trade-proposal">Mark Andrews might not get to enjoy it</a>.

But, I can tell you this: Mark Andrews is a warrior. He’s played his butt off for us.”</p><h2><b>Ravens TE Mark Andrews fighting uphill battle?</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Baltimore-Ravens-TE-Mark-Andrews.jpg"><figcaption>Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Will it be difficult for Andrews to remain with the team? Fans tend to have a long memory, and the 2-point conversion drop with the Ravens trailing 27-25 to the Buffalo Bills — with 1:33 left in the game — likely remains in their minds.</p><p>The seven-year veteran is a three-time Pro Bowl selection. The most recent came in 2022. He had an All-Pro season in 2021 with 107 catches for 1,361 yards and nine scores. Andrews ranks third in franchise history with 436 receptions and second with 5,530 yards receiving. Both of those records will likely fall this year if he remains in Baltimore. Last year, Andrews surpassed Jamal Lewis as the Ravens’ all-time touchdown leader and has 51 overall.</p><p>“His competitiveness, his talent, his attitude, his leadership is so valued here,” DeCosta said. “He’s a great player. And I think we’re in the business of keeping as many great players as we can. So, there’s always a lot of unpredictability with the draft. You just never know.”</p><p>The presence of Isaiah Likely gives the Ravens the flexibility to trade Andrews. However, head coach John Harbaugh remains in his corner.</p><p>“I do fully expect him to be playing for us next year,” Harbaugh said recently. “He’s just too good a player.”</p><p>The Ravens own 11 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, so they can remodel their roster. They have two fourth-round picks and four sixth-round selections. Their <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6232970/2025/04/11/baltimore-ravens-2025-nfl-draft-picks-needs-predictions-guide/" rel="noopener">main areas of need</a> are edge rusher and defensive back, according to nytimes.com.</p><p>“(Edge rusher) is certainly a prominent need for the future,” Jeff Zrebiec wrote. “Finding another impactful pass rusher would help quite a bit in the present, too. (Also,) Baltimore has only five corners and three safeties on its roster, so reinforcements are needed. Star safety Kyle Hamilton also needs a running mate.”</p><p>The Ravens face a challenge of needing to win in 2025. With the current structure of the roster, they should be in the Super Bowl mix. The question they must answer about Andrews is whether the fans would embrace his return, or would it be a distraction?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Los Angeles changed overnight after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/los-angeles-chargers/chargers-news-jim-harbaugh-hired-head-coach-michigan">signing Jim Harbaugh as head coach</a> before the 2024 season. The Chargers won 11 games during the regular season and made to the playoffs. They accomplish all of this with a talent-poor roster that was in salary cap hell after the previous regime.</p><p>As a result, Chargers fans have plenty of reasons for optimism about the future.</p><p>The Chargers have already made some solid moves during NFL free agency. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/los-angeles-chargers/chargers-news-rb-najee-harris-puts-steelers-on-blast">Los Angeles brought in several roleplayers, including Najee Harris</a> and Benjamin St-Juste. They also rebuilt their offensive line by adding Mekhi Becton and Andre James.</p><p>These moves have helped fill out the depth throughout the roster. However, the Chargers need to start making some upgrades if they want to become a contending team in the AFC.</p><p>Los Angeles will also get a lot better after the 2025 NFL Draft. They have 10 total selections, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/nfl-stories/2025-nfl-draft-order-prospects-targets">including the 22nd overall pick</a>.</p><p>The Chargers should also consider improving the team with trades. If LA adds enough talented players in one offseason, especially those who have been there and done that, they could take a huge leap forward in 2025.</p><p>But who could LA target in a trade?</p><p>Below we will explore one trade package that ESPN’s Bill Barnwell recommends the Chargers send to the Ravens to acquire tight end Mark Andrews.</p><h2><b>Bill Barnwell suggests Chargers make aggressive trade proposal for Mark Andrews</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Mark-Andrews-of-the-Ravens.jpg"><figcaption>Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Here are the terms of Barnwell’s proposed trade before we dive into any analysis.</p><p><b>Chargers receive: </b></p><ul><li>TE Mark Andrews</li><li>2025 first-round pick (27th overall)</li><li>2025 fourth-round pick (136th overall)</li></ul><p><b>Ravens receive: </b></p><ul><li>G Zion Johnson</li><li>2025 first-round pick (22nd overall)</li></ul><p>This hypothetical trade must be music to the ears of Chargers fans.</p><p>Jim Harbaugh loves to run the football and set up play-action passes off the back of it. The Chargers have an okay tight end room at the moment (Will Dissly, Tyler Conklin) but they could really use an upgrade, especially as a pass catcher. That’s where Andrews comes in.</p><p>The perception on Mark Andrews is lower than it has been in quite some time.</p><p>Andrews had a solid 2024 campaign, hauling in 55 receptions for 673 yards and 11 touchdowns. This was the most touchdowns of Andrews’ career, but he did see his role in Baltimore’s offense diminish slightly.</p><p>There are a few reasons why Andrews’ production slipped. One was the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/grading-derrick-henrys-2-year-16-million-contract-with-ravens">addition of RB Derrick Henry to Baltimore’s offense</a>. Naturally, when you acquire a player like Henry, you want to give him the ball whenever you can. It is obvious that Henry stole touches from multiple Ravens players, including Andrews.</p><p>The other main reason could be competition with fellow tight end Isaiah Likely. Andrews was the unquestioned top tight end in Baltimore over the past few seasons. However, Likely had a career season that mixes things up quite a bit.</p><p>Likely hauled in 42 receptions for 477 yards and six touchdowns.</p><p>It feels inevitable that Likely will eventually overtake Andrews for the top tight end spot in Baltimore.</p><p>As a result, the Ravens may view Andrews as a movable asset.</p><p>Zion Johnson is an interesting part of this trade.</p><p>Johnson may mean much more to the Ravens than he does to the Chargers. As a result, he would be an important piece in this hypothetical trade.</p><p>“The Chargers, meanwhile, have prioritized their offensive line under both the Hortiz and Tom Telesco regimes, but Johnson hasn’t lived up to expectations,” Barnwell explained. “The 2022 first-round pick has been average in his career, and there are real questions about whether L.A. will want to pick up his fifth-year option, which would guarantee him $17.6 million in 2026. Andrews is the more prominent player, but Johnson might be equally as desirable given his youth and the recent positional importance of guards.”</p><p>The Ravens do need to upgrade their offensive line, especially on the interior. Andrew Vorhees and Daniel Faalele are useful pieces, but there is hardly anyone behind them to provide depth.</p><p>If Baltimore added Johnson, they would gain a talented depth player at worst. However, Johnson has the upside necessary to potentially win a starting spot in training camp. His long-term contract situation is not ideal, but he could be a valuable patch for 2025 with some future upside.</p><p>If this trade actually happened, I’d expect it to occur during the 2025 NFL Draft.</p><p>It is difficult to anticipate how much of a difference five spots in the first round can make before the draft. However, once players start flying off the board, it could make the difference between landing a star player and missing out on him.</p><p>Perhaps the Chargers and Ravens could agree in principle to the terms of a trade and then pull the trigger on draft day if the right opportunity presents itself.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Ravens are coming off of <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/ravens-most-blame-divisional-round-loss-bills">a brutal playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills</a> in the divisional round this year, a game in which they had several chances to come back but ultimately fell just short.</p><p>One of the key figures blamed for the loss was tight end Mark Andrews, who lost a fumble and dropped a seemingly routine two-point conversion catch late that would have tied the game. With the Ravens looking to continue to build their roster this offseason, there is speculation that Andrews could be a candidate for the team to cut in order to shed salary. Recently, NFL insider Dan Graziano shared some insight into this <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/story/_/id/43903031/2025-nfl-offseason-salary-cap-questions-32-teams-contracts-cuts-trades" rel="noopener">line of thinking.</a></p><p>“These things can be tricky, since you can take a cold, impartial look at Andrews’ age (29) and his contract and say, ‘Yes, of course.’ But that doesn’t always account for the relationship between the player and the team,” reported Graziano.</p><p>However, Graziano also noted that “there were stretches this past season when <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/4361050/isaiah-likely" rel="noopener noreferrer">Isaiah Likely</a> appeared to have surpassed him in the passing game hierarchy in Baltimore.”</p><p>Still, “there’s a good chance he and the team come up with a way to stay together,” reported Graziano.</p><h2><b>A reliable weapon for Lamar Jackson</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Andrews-vs-the-Bills-1.jpg"><figcaption>Gregory Fisher-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>While it may be easy to forget in the aftermath of his disastrous fourth quarter against the Bills, Mark Andrews has been arguably Lamar Jackson’s most reliable receiving target during his tenure with the Ravens, consistently finding pockets in the defense and also showing a willingness to block when the ball isn’t coming his way.</p><p>Still, as Graziano mentioned in his report, Isaiah Likely had a breakout year this past season and the team could theoretically see a reason to try to invest Andrews’ contract money elsewhere if they feel that their tight end position is already solidified for the future.</p><p>In any case, the Ravens will now turn their attention to the upcoming NFL Draft, which is slated to begin in late April.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But former teammate Mark Ingram is coming to Andrews’ defense, telling DJ Siddiqi of <i>The Sports Daily</i> that <a href="https://thesportsdaily.com/news/mark-ingram-exclusive-interview-ravens/" rel="noopener">“missed opportunities” from the entire team</a> are to blame for the Ravens’ early playoff exit.</p><p>“You can never blame it on one person,” Ingram said. “It’s a team game and there’s so many things that happen throughout the game that can affect the outcome.”</p><p>A year after coming within one game of the Super Bowl, Baltimore had championship aspirations again. But turnovers and drops were too much to overcome, including the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-john-harbaugh-delivers-blunt-mark-andrews-take-painful-loss-bills">deciding two-point conversion drop by Andrews</a> as the Ravens attempted to tie the game. The drop was compounded by Andrews fumbling in Buffalo territory earlier in the fourth quarter while the Ravens were driving down the field.</p><p>“I haven’t been able to speak to Mark, but I know everyone in that Raven organization, everyone around him is lifting him up, trying to encourage him,” Ingram said. “I know the competitor that he is, I know he’s not happy about the fourth quarter of that game or the entirety of that game. He’s one of the best tight ends in the game.”</p><p>Ingram noted that Andrews has always been “one of the fiercest competitors in the locker room” and holds himself to high standards on and off the field.</p><p>“I love Mark Andrews,” Ingram said. “He’s a tremendous player and he’s going to bounce back, 100 percent.”</p><h2><b>Mark Andrews’ reaction to Ravens’ playoff loss</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Jan-4-2025-Baltimore-Maryland-USA-Baltimore-Ravens-tight-end-Mark-Andrews-89-reacts-after-scoring-a-touchdown-during-the-first-half-against-the-Cleveland-Browns-at-MT-Bank-Stadiu.jpg"><figcaption>Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>After having time to digest what happened, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-mark-andrews-breaks-silence-devastating-bills-loss">Andrews took to Instagram on Jan. 23</a> to make his statement to fans.</p><p>“It’s impossible to adequately express how I feel,” the post started. “I’m absolutely gutted by what happened Sunday. I’m devastated for my teammates, my coaches and Ravens fans. I pour every ounce of my being into playing at the highest level possible, because I love my team and the game of football like nothing else.”</p><p>Andrews continued, “I refuse to let the situation define me. I promise that this adversity will only make me stronger and fuel us as we move forward.”</p><p>Next season is Andrews’ final year under contract with Baltimore as the former Oklahoma Sooner will become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
