Green Bay Packers right tackle Bryan Bulaga will stay with the team signing a new five year contract. The deal is worth $33.75 million, but only 8 is guaranteed. Bulaga is now the 24th highest paid tackle but much of the money earned will be tied to incentives. Nevertheless Bulaga shared his rejoice for staying in Green Bay.

Here’s the details of his contract:

2015
Cash value: $10 million
Salary-cap charge: $3.6 million
Signing bonus: $8 million
Roster bonus: Up to $500,000 ($31,250 per game active)
Workout bonus: $250,000
Base salary: $1.25 million

2016
Cash value: $4 million
Salary-cap charge: $5.6 million
Roster bonus: $2.8 million ($2.25 million due on the third day of the league year, $35,735 per game active)
Workout bonus: $250,000
Base salary: $950,000

2017
Cash value: $6.25 million
Salary-cap charge: $7.91 million
Roster bonus: Up to $600,000 ($37,500 per game active)
Workout bonus: $250,000
Base salary: $5.4 million

2018
Cash value: $6.75 million
Salary-cap charge: $8.35 million
Roster bonus: Up to $650,000 ($40,625 per game active)
Workout bonus: $250,000
Base salary: $5.85 million

2019
Cash value: $6.75 million
Salary-cap charge: $8.35 million
Roster bonus: Up to $700,000 ($43,750 per game active)
Workout bonus: $250,000
Base salary: $5.8 million

As you can see much of his salary depends on the number of games played. A job well done on behalf of Packers G.M. Ted Thompson. Bulaga missed all of the 2013 season and half of the 2012 campaign so this does provides the Packers with an insurance policy. Bulaga was a key member of the playoff run Green Bay endured last season. The key will be if he is able to stay healthy for Green Bay. The Packers are known to be great bargain hunters during free agency. Look for the Pack to do the same after retaining their core pieces.
