Dalvin Tomlinson has a distinct profile as an above-average run defender and a below-average pass-rusher. He ranks in the 82nd percentile in PFF run-defense grade since 2017, and he knows how to finish plays - generating one of the best run-stop percentages in the league. As a pass-rusher, Tomlinson has only graded above 62.3 once - 74.7 this past season. He can play all over the defensive interior and represents one of the best run-stopping nose tackles in this class.
Shelby Harris, One of the most underrated players in the league, Harris has been an above-average player since starting to see significant playing time in 2017. The former seventh-rounder wins with good pad level and quickness in the running game and ranks in the top third of the league in run-stop percentage since 2018. Harris has also been one of the league's best pass-rushers since 201,8 with the only reservations being that he has only two seasons with more than 500 snaps (636 in 2019, 516 in 2017).
Jurrell Casey, Limited to just 156 snaps in 2020, Casey kept his streak alive of never grading below 70.0 overall on the PFF grading scale, highlighting how he’s been consistently good since entering the league in 2011. Casey had five straight years with 50-plus pressures from 2013 to 2019, but his pass-rushing has slowed a bit in recent years. He’s still a plus run defender and he should get a look in a weak free agent class of interior defensive linemen.
Nadamukong Suh certainly isn't the force he once was, but he is still able to maintain an absurd workload for as many snaps as he's logged over his NFL career. The 788 snaps he played this season was the lowest total of his career, yet it was still the 11th-most among all interior defenders. Suh racked up 50 total pressures and 25 defensive stops and can still be a very solid member of a defensive line. At this point, he is a mercenary for hire on a short-term contract. If a team has a problem spot up front, Suh can fix it.
Need to stay up to date on FAs. ALL of those Guys except Casey have signed.
Tomlinson signed with the Vikings, Suh resigned with Bucs, and Shelby resigned with Broncos.
