As far as paying for future performance, yea all contracts have that expectation I would hope but looking at it reasonably he didn't earn the front half of the 1st contract so its not slam dunk he earns the second one.
BTW, don't you also expect we traded for Alex Smith based on what they feel he can do moving forward as well?

Alex has been in the league for seven seasons. He has been a starter pretty much that entire time. His best TWO seasons COMBINED produced 5,494 yards and 35 TDs.
Stafford's second year in the league (just two seasons ago) produced 5,038 yards and 41 TDs.
