Offer fractional ownership (complete with profit sharing for stadium revenue) with the PSLs…

All the reports I've seen say we are giving a 6th this year and a 5th next year... not receiving them.

I assume the valued the draft capital to move up this month more than the cap burden savings of waiting until after the draft.

I think most fans were fine with what we had - and would rather not have a new stadium (at ours and taxpayer expense).

CPA question - is the PSL deductible for a business… or is the purchase price just the cost basis for when it’s sold later?

Until Josh Allen came along it was a loss every year. The preseason games are what kill you, because there's next to no market for them. If I'm strategic with regular season games I can generally profit off of the individual games I choose to sell, which supplements the games I attend.

Yes, that's my pure speculation. If they're going to get 2-5x for the PSL, they're going to keep the season tickets reasonably within reach of what they are now. I think a $100 ticket now will be $120 in year 1. I think a $200 ticket now will be $240 in year 1. I think a $300 ticket now will be $360 in year 1. Secondary market prices are going to shoot up. Those that bought season tickets and paid for the PSL are going to try and recoup some of that PSL fee. Individual game tickets sold by the team directly may increase more... but I think season tickets remain with reach.

Pure speculation - new ticket price will be within 20% of current. I think they'd lose too many season ticket holders if they package a PSL fee and huge jump. 5 years from now I can see the season prices being double what they are now.

Borrowing at any rate higher than inflation for non-essential or non-income producing purposes is a poor financial decision... but you do you. I'm not sure what PSL number would be palatable for the masses. I've had season tickets for nearly 20 years. 2x my season ticket cost is justifiable to me. 3x is my break point. I have no idea if that's realistic or not, but that's the walk-away figure I've come up with.

washed up Cam Newton, Kyle Allen, Teddy Bridgewater, Taylor Heinicke, washed up Carson Wentz and Sam Howell... that's who he's had throwing to him. I think it's realistic for him to match his best years here... which puts him at Gabe's production levels at less money. It works if we find a solid WR2 in the draft and dont expect Samuel to be more than he is.

Agreed - at this price point he can be a WR3 or WR2b... what Gabe should have been. I'd still take a Round 1 WR to have a true WR2 and potential WR1 when Diggs declines. Diggs, Rd(1)ROOKIE, Samuel, Shakir, Shorter/Hollins paired with Kincaid and Knox is pretty formidable.

I think he's proven that he's not a good WR2... If anything he's a below average WR2 and above average WR3. If he goes on to be a good WR2 or low end WR1 in Jacksonville, it'll be an indictment on our offensive system here.

I like the signing and value. Maybe it's a "grass is always greener" mindset, but how is Gabe Davis worth 1.5x Samuel or Hollywood Brown in the open market? I understand that he's younger, but his health has always been an issue. What am I missing? He had one historic game several years ago, but otherwise has been very pedestrian. He never had a 1,000 yard season, never had 50 receptions... despite being in a pass heavy offense with a great QB, and 3 different OCs had a desire/need to get him more involved.

He did play for Carolina, so at least that box is checked.

I don't hold grudges with many ex-players, but he's a hard pass.
