Instant Fantasy Analysis - TE Isaiah Likely, Ravens

[The Football Guru 210]

Draft Profile

Team Fit: Fellow fourth-rounder Charlie Kolar is the more prototypical tight end, but Likely offers mismatch potential that should lead to a more fantasy-friendly role at some point since Kolar would likely need an injury to Mark Andrews to be relevant. Likely is surprisingly quick and loose-hipped for a 245-pound man, and he possesses much more experience in running a full route tree than one might expect from a Sun Belt player. At 245 pounds, he is stuck in a bit of a no man's land because he is too light to be a traditional tight end and doesn't block well enough to be a fullback. Likely profiles as a mismatch weapon who could fill in for Andrews if the Pro Bowler goes down, although he would likely share snaps with Kolar in that scenario. He could play an H-back role for one of the league's more unique offenses, however, which could help him push for 20-30 catches as a rookie.
