The Facts:
There's been a lot of talk about how the new zone-blocking scheme will benefit the offensive linemen and second-year RB DeAngelo Williams, but there's another player who could benefit just as much. Although there's been a lot of speculation that Williams will take over as the feature back, Foster is working as the starter.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Foster is entering his sixth season, and at least one teammate thinks the new offense is putting the running back in a position to succeed for the first time. "He's kind of had a monkey on his back since he's been here," tackle Jordan Gross said. "He hasn't fit the type of plays we've called for him. He's done a great job with what he has been given. It's obvious that he's real excited now and he's ready to cut it loose. He feels healthy. He's had the best offseason he's had since I've been here."
