Jason Verrett could be the NFL's best CB in 2016 - Nathan Jahnke
Verrett will be celebrating his 25th birthday in a few days, and has a decent chance to at least keep playing at the same level he’s been performing at.

10 QBs who could crack the fantasy QB1 ranks - Tyler Loechner
Rivers has always been an interesting fantasy option. He scored the 12th-most fantasy points last season despite his best target (Keenan Allen) missing half the season, and his other best target (Antonio Gates) serving a suspension to start the season. Even with these hindrances, Rivers threw for 4,792 yards, second most in the league behind Brees. Rivers is currently the 10th quarterback being drafted, so he’s not exactly a steal when it comes to ADP-to-expected-finish, but his numbers check out across the board. He should be a solid tail-end QB1 this season, especially with Allen and Gates both on the field at the same time.

Eugene Monroe released by Ravens - ESPN.com
"My understanding right now is that teams are inquiring about Eugene," Harbaugh said. "And when you're in that kind of a situation and there is a possibility of those kinds of things happening, you're pretty much obligated to pull back and not practice a guy."
