When the Minnesota Vikings signed defensive tackle Dalvin Tomlinson from the New York Giants in March, the bulk of mock drafts pivoted to the team’s defensive end and offensive line needs. A defensive tackle at the Vikings 14th spot in the draft has been a mock-draft scarcity during the last month.
But on Monday, prominent Pro Football Focus personality, Sam Monson, sent Christian Barmore the Vikings in his latest mock draft.
It’s been a while. Barmore was a popular prediction target for Minnesota before free agency, but the “roster need” segment of draft philosophy was quenched when Tomlinson agreed to terms with the Vikings.
