Vikings bolster defense, sign Dalvin Tomlinson
Fantasy slant: After allowing the sixth-most rushing yards in the NFL last season, Mike Zimmer is determined to upgrade his run defense. Bringing in Tomlinson helps fortify the Vikings’ defensive line. He’s coming off somewhat of a down season as PFF’s 39th-highest-graded interior run defender, but before 2020 he was a perennial top-25 player in this regard. – Derek Brown
