Stafford would have to restructure his contract if we want both Mack and Fuller. No doubt about it. But I just saw that Mahomes restructured with KC to save them over 20 million this year. If Stafford wants to win another SB he knows he has to agree to restructuring his contract.
I don't know if the Rams will ask Stafford to restructure ... but if they do ask I can't imagine why Stafford would say 'no'.
Stafford's salary this year is $31M. As it stands he will get paid once a week during the course of the season: $1.722M a week for 18 weeks.
If he converts $25M of that to a signing bonus he gets that $25M today and then the remaining $6M is paid out during the season: $333,333 a week for 18 weeks.
If there's a reason why Stafford wouldn't do that I'd like to hear it.
BTW, this move would save the Rams $20M against this year's cap if they also add a couple void years to his current deal.
