The Buccaneers inked defensive tackle Brian Price today.

No details yet on the length of the deal and for how much, but it's important for the Colts because Price was the 35th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. Right now, he is the highest drafted player under contract for 2010. Meanwhile, rookie defensive end Jerry Hughes, selected 31st overall in the draft by the Colts, is as yet unsigned.

When the details of Price's deal are made public, we will have a better idea of what the Colts plan to offer Hughes.
