Andy Otten (born 15 May 1989) is an Australian rules football player for the Adelaide Football Club. The tall midfielder was Adelaide’s second selection in the 2007 National Draft, taken at pick 27, and recorded strong results at the 2007 NAB AFL Draft Camp ranking in the top 2% for the vertical leap (92 cm), top ten for agility and the top 20% for the beep test (14.2).

Otten made his debut in round 12 against eventual premiers Hawthorn, and played one more game for the 2008 season. The next season he exploded onto the AFL scene, playing a consistent running role across half back and being likened to former defender Nathan Bassett, although he is expected to move back into the midfield in later years. Otten won a NAB AFL Rising Star nomination in round 9 for his performance against Carlton, in which he collected 23 possessions and kicked a brilliant running goal from beyond 50. On the 2nd of September 2009 Otten was named the runner-up NAB AFL Rising Star. He finished second to Daniel Rich who scored the maximum of 45 points. Otten scored 30 points. ^[1].

Otten scored three votes in the 2009 Brownlow Medal count.
