  Bears | One signed, one cut    Sat Aug 17, 04:08 PM

The Chicago Bears signed free-agent DT Eric Foster (Colts) and waived LB Andrew Starks.

Footballguys view: Foster gets a chance to make the Bears roster after they let DE Jamaal Anderson go. He hasn't played in a game since 2011 (Colts) and isn't a lock to make the team. Foster is undersized but can get low and be disruptive on the defensive line.

  Colts | Five agree to terms    Sun Jul 31, 01:55 PM

The Indianapolis Colts agreed to terms to re-sign DT Eric Foster, OG Kyle DeVan, RB Delone Carter, CB Chris L. Rucker and DT Antonio Johnson. Terms of the deals were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Carter is one of our favorite RBs in this year's draft class. He runs low and has powerful leg drive like Ravens RB Ray Rice, although he's not as fast. Carter can grind on a defense and run through arm tackles with ease. The Colts decided to keep Joseph Addai around but don't be surprised if Carter begins to emerge for them as the season goes along.

  Colts | DT Foster focused on pass rush    Sat Jul 4, 03:27 PM

John Oehser, from Colts.com, reports Foster said he knows as he enters his second NFL season that he must work on all elements of his game - run-stopping included - he said there is one statistic from his rookie season he particularly plans to change. That's the one that shows him with no sacks.

Footballguys view: Foster signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent last year, and ended up starting 11 games for the team in his rookie season. He finished the year with 49 tackles, 6 QB pressures, but 0 sacks. Foster was known for his leadership ability at Rutgers - plus a sick spin move that can take offensive linemen by surprise. "Right now, I'm focusing on basically finishing - basically pass rush," Foster said recently during the Colts' off-season conditioning program "I have to get after the quarterback, finish my moves."
