8/28/2017: Stafford signed a six-year, $135 million contract. The deal contains $92 million guaranteed, including a $60.5 million signing bonus. Stafford is eligible for an annual $500,000 workout bonus throughout the contact's life.
2018: $9.5 million (+ $6.5 million roster bonus)
2019: $13.5 million (+ $5.5 million roster bonus)
2020: $15 million (+ $6 million roster bonus)
2021: $9.5 million (+ $10 million roster bonus)
2022: $12.5 million (+ $10 million roster bonus)
2023: Free Agent
He would be cheaper than Rivers

I wonder what they could him for from Detroit. I've got a lot of family and some friends from Detroit. They all have said they think Stafford deserves to play for a competent franchise.
I haven't seen enough of the guy's tape to really make any kind of declarative statement but generally what I've seen from him I've liked.
I would hope he could at least produce like River's did, but if they don't have a legitimate long term plan in place I'm going to be annoyed at us renting a quarterback for another year or two and pushing the problem down the line.
