The Facts: Former Raiders QB Stidham is signing a two-year, $10 million deal with the Broncos, choosing to play for Sean Payton over other options.

Diehards Line: The deal, which includes $5 million guaranteed and $4 million more in upside, reunites him new Broncos QB coach Davis Webb, who he has known since he was a teenager. As Boston Globe staffer Ben Volin suggests, Stidham to the Broncos should only increase the chances of the Raiders getting Jimmy Garoppolo. The Raiders and Texans are both said to be pursuing Garoppolo.
