Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Vikings, who essentially played with no fullback on the roster under Mike Tice, have added one of the NFL's best players at the position for the West Coast-style attack that first-year head coach Brad Childress will install for this season. And as ESPN.com insider Len Pasquarelli suggested, having a strong character player like Richardson in the locker room will also be a plus for Childress as he attempts to improve the Vikings' image.
