Watson is worth 5 firsts for more reasons than just on the field play

Besides prior precedent of Jamal Adams, Ramsey, and Mack going for 2 firsts and additional picks, there’s also the increased value to the franchise Watson will bring.

Watson will most likely increase revenues to any team he goes to by 20-30 million a year minimum through jersey sales, increased revenue from team sponsorships, increased media contracts, increased season ticket prices, merchandise, and other ancillary revenue streams.

If I’m an owner, I happily give up whatever it takes to get an additional 20-30 million a year in revenue.

The jets would be nationally televised every game they play compared to none next year, unless they play a star team.

A top 5 qb that is also black is huge for the jets. They will increase their market share in New York as a lot of non football fans will buy Watson jerseys and become jets fans. Women in New York will want to date him and men will want to be him. Mothers and fathers will want their children to be like him.

If you think I’m wrong, go look at Brady. He’s in his 40s, and if it weren’t for covid, the buccaneers would’ve made a ton more in revenue this year compared to last year.
