Do I get Jake's autograph?

Need some input. I've been using the Panthers search site for awhile now and I finally got enough points to get an autographed copy of Roar signed by Jake Delhomme. My plan was to get it and hang it on the wall of my den (or sports room). Although the way he has been playing I am not sure I want it anymore.

Should I get the Jake autograph, take a John Fox autograph (who could be fired by the time they ship it to me) or hold out for a Peppers jersey which might take me months to save up for.

Any thoughts?

The 2009 Jake Delhomme is the worst starting QB in professional football.....majority of backups could have played at his level or better.

However, Jake Delhomme as a Panther has been great. Every player is eventually going to fall off...age, injury, or simply losing whatever "it" was they had. I would get the Jake autograph if you are into autographs.....he is a high character guy and has had a great career.

I'd go for the Jake sig......yeah he is on a death spiral but he is the only Panther qb to take this team to the Super Bowl....he'll always be a part of Panther history....good and bad.

This^^^

As things play out, you can always get a peppers jersey really cheap later if he leaves the team....

I think you are totally right. Chance are years from now whee it is hanging on my wall I will only remember the good years.

Thanks, I am ordering it today!

BTW, is anyone else using the Panthers search site?

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
