Delhomme has new deal

[eaton_branden1]

He deserved it and it's not much different money wise from what he's making now. Good move on the Panthers part, saves us probably around 2.5 - 3 million on this season as well.

:confused:

You're acting like you know it all when you dont. The Redskins and Cowboys signed old over the hill players just like the Panthers did by extending Jake.

This signing did nothing to help the team. Nobody on this board knows the exact figure on what we will pay Jake the next couple of years and to think we just gained 6 million in capspace would be wrong.

Also dont think we are a bunch of idiots on here because honestly it is making you look stupid.

You're right, he was worth 11 mil to our salary cap this season.

He in no way, shape or form deserved $20 million dollars guaranteed. Pretty sure everyone knew the extension was coming, but just haha at how much we payed.

That's like $50,000 per jump ball to Smith.

how? :confused:

He had a good season considering what he went through. He's won his fair share of games and usually performs well. A lot of people are stuck on that one game and not thinking about the big picture for this season and the next couple of years. He's the best Option we've got and he's a darn good qb when on.

More playoff games than the two combined times 10.

When do we get our "almost made it" rings?

[R0CKnR0LLA]

Cut out the personal attacks.

You're a meanie pants!

You mean you never got yours?

I've never claimed to be an NFL salary cap guru, or one of these guys that has intimate knowledge of what goes on inside an NFL team's management offices (except the time an admin. assistant went down on me near the 49ers Santa Clara facility), but I wouldn't be surprised if there was something around $18M guaranteed in it, with salary and pro-rated bonuses and everything. I mean, if he was due $11M this year, that would be bare minimum that he would take in an extension, otherwise he'd give 'em the finger. I could see them giving him another $5-7M spread out over the next few years in order to kind of help out with this year's cap problems. Then it's a win-win, we get immediate cap releif to some degree, and Jake knows that even if he gets cut after next season, he gets more $$$ just for restructuring. Just my $.02.

Bet when it all comes out he will make 9 million this year. But like I said nobody has the figures yet.

So he makes 9 mil this year huh? FUNNY you know this but nobody has the figures yet.

Best I could do on short notice...

[mantal]

Have we won?

More playoff games than the two combined times 10.

In the last 14 years, almost made it is something that both the other teams can't even sniff, so yeah, I'll take that ring...

Has nothing to do with the subject at hand, just sayin'...

Those 2 cents make perfect sense, but all the haters see is dollars. I mean damn, he is a starting QB for the past 6 years. Most guys who can maintain that job usually make more than what he got signed for. HOPEFULLY, this gives us more time to get Moore ready if he is our best option for the future.
