What Will Become of Jake Delhomme?

What are the Panthers to do about their starting quarterback, Jake Delhomme? While most of the fans love him (even despite a bad playoff performance last season), he’s still a huge sum of money against the Panthers salary cap. And we all know about the bad condition that the Panthers salary cap finds itself in these days. But would the Panthers really trade Jake?

Cat Scratch Reader’s Jaxon seems to think that the Panthers will extend Jake Delhomme’s contract at least to next year, but that the salary will have to be reduced to make room for other contracts. He quoted John Fox as having said that the Panthers want to make a commitment to Jake Delhomme. But does that mean extension?

Others seem to think that the Panthers will re-sign Delhomme for even more money- make a huge commitment to their star quarterback so that he doesn’t leave after the next season. What do you think the Panthers should do? Clearly these are tight times financially in Carolina, but do you want to risk losing your franchise QB to go the cheap route?
