Dalvin Tomlinson is a career quality starter — a pass rusher whose body of work places Tomlinson in the top half of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Tomlinson's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A edge rusher with a top 30% among starters — the kind of consistent contributor every roster needs. Solid availability (exceptional availability — almost never missed time) added to their value.
Worth 51 points of value above a freely-available replacement edge rusher — top 44% of all 4,666 ranked at the position. 7 of 9 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +7.3 on average.See board →
