Already, the Colts have made the very exciting (!) move of signing tackle Gosder Cherilus in the first hours of free agency (the excitement, by the way, applies solely to Colts owner Jim Irsay’s Twitter account).

But now, Indianapolis has added an important piece to its secondary as the team has announced that it has agreed in principle to a deal with former Cardinals cornerback Greg Toler, who ranked No. 54 in our top-100 free agent list. According to the Baltimore Sun’s Aaron Wilson, the deal is worth $15 million over three years.

Though the Cardinals official website reported recently the team wanted to re-sign Toler, who has recorded five interceptions in three seasons, the two sides didn’t come to an agreement. Toler also reportedly drew interest from the Browns and Redskins.

But together with Vontae Davis, Toler has a chance now to make that cornerback duo a solid one.

In other Colts free agent news, the team also has agreed to terms with former Patriots guard Donald Thomas, Packers linebacker Erik Walden and Falcons linebacker Lawrence Sidbury.
