Glenn and Porter Sign Extensions

The Globe and Mail reported that the Cats signed contract extensions with the Cats, so that this year is not there option year. What I wonder is what happens in relation to what Glenn was supposed to be paid this year? He signed last year if I recall for pretty much backup money, so now that I assume he is the de facto starter going into this season he will want to be paid closer to the $400,000 range that quality CFL starting quarterbacks get. Does he get a bump for this season or next season? How does that affect the salary cap for next year in terms of going after free agents?

One thing about Glenn being the starter at beginning of the 2010 season, if he goes cold for the first few games, what happens with Porter? Does Glenn have a huge leash? Will Cat fans suddenly start chanting for Porter (or Tafralis?) A long way away, but next season could have a lot of quarterback drama.
