Wow, how quickly CB becomes a weak spot on the team 
....too bad for Alexander

Never fear, Iggy is here. /s
Man that's a tough loss. I doubt Needham is out long, but we definitely need to invest in some CB depth. I'd still like to see some OL help signed too, but I don't foresee that being in the cards for whatever reason.

Can't you come back from the IR in like six games?

Nope, under the newest CBA if you are placed on IR during training camp you are on it for the rest of the year. See Lynn Bowden jr last year.
But this brings up and interesting point. It is a loop hole in the system. If they don't have a roster spot for Skylar but feel he needs one more year they could put him on ir (broken finger nail or something) and be sure he wasn't poached. Personally I would rather trade Teddy and jus make Skylar #2, but that would be an option.
I like your idea of finding a way to put Thompson on IR for the year. I really have no interest in having a rookie QB as Tua’s backup going into the regular season. No matter how well Thompson has played against future Fedx employees in the preseason.
Jeesh
At least the DB injuries haven’t hit the main guys yet

Byron Jones says hi
I agree with this 100% - as good as he's been let's stop thinking he's a better backup for a team that's in win now mode than Teddy - that's crazy!!!!!
Who the hell wants Teddy 2 Gloves? No one wanted him as a FA.
