Just because someone else will pay him does not make it a good argument for Detroit paying him.

He's been in the league for 8 seasons and hasn't won a playoff game, this strategy isn't exactly working out either through 8 years.
He's a 29yo top 10ish QB.

People keep saying get a game manager at a cheap price and build around that.
Truth of the matter is, that's just not the reality. Look at the SB winning QBs in the past ten years. Only Russell Wilson and Flacco fit the bill, and even those don't grow on trees.
Well technically Peyton Manning fit the bill too, but that's not because he was cheap....

I'd work to trade him.
And before you say, "well good luck finding a competent QB" I'll just remind you once more that Stafford has been around for 8 years and Detroit has not had success with him, so the Stafford strategy hasn't exactly led to success either. That's not the guy I want to be giving all the money.
I'm a big believer in getting value for any deal you make. This is not a good value IMO.
