Mite get a #1 draft pick. If salary cap is an issue this year, they'll lose people an w/need to bring in talent. I'd do it.

Not gonna get a #1 pick. Its something they could consider but I like having both for Lamar next year.

[BaltBird 24]

Keep both.

Roquan was the best MLB in football and only got a 2nd round and 5th round pick.

Likely might get you a 3rd round pick, but it won’t justify the risk in losing him. 

[mikezpen]

Not for that, no.

I'd rather they keep Likely.  He had a very good season in place of Andrews and proved that he is one of the better YAC tight ends in the league.  What I've been hoping for is that they transition him to wide receiver and have both him and Andrews on the field at the same time.  OBJ and Agholor are probably not going to be here next year so that gives you the opportunity for that kind of move.

The real return if you traded Andrews would be cap room.

If you traded Andrews, could you keep Queen?

My sense is the Ravens wouldn't take a weapon/safety blanket from Jackson.

It only saves 5M, still almost 12M in dead cap. And that assumes it's done before they have to pay a 4M roster bonus on 3/18. Doesn't seem to worthwhile. I'd use them both.

[Mackus]

Nope, keep both.

[Ravens2006]

Not slamming Andrews, but I don’t think you would get a 1 for him right now. Maybe I'm wrong, but between the recent injury and I'll call it "lack of tough catches in January" I just don't know you get a big return.

If this had to be done, I'd keep Likely.

Idk. I'm sure you're going off of value. And that's where it gets tough.

When Andrews is healthy, he's easily a top 5 TE. I'd argue top 3. But that list is subjective. I think Kelce is still the top dog. But Hockenson has consistently been great. Kittle is great. But Andrews is definitely in their tier. You have LaPorta and Kincaid looking like they could be the next big things. And Goedert is really good. But I'm taking Andrews over any of those guys. So at that point, you look at Andrews making $14 million a year. That's not bad for one of the top playmakers at TE in the NFL. Especially considering he's only making $250k more than Evan Engram. And $1 million more than Dawson Knox.
