Kleinsasser re-ups with Vikings: Tight end Jim Kleinsasser has re-signed with the Minnesota Vikings for a $9 million, three-year contract.

Fantasy Analysis

Kleinsasser was a second-round draft pick in 1999 and has become one of the league's most rugged blockers. Unfortunately, that does not translate into much Fantasy success. Over 10 seasons, Kleinsasser has only 1,466 yards and six touchdowns receiving, but he's a vital part of the Vikings' rushing attack with his ability to seal the edge. He should not be owned in Fantasy.
