Valuing an NFL player

This isn't a spam post, I promise.

Just came across this site called Fantex. You can literally invest in an athlete's brand income, so essentially a royalty. I just thought it was an odd, but interesting idea. I haven't dug into the financials or other information - and don't plan to - but I couldn't help but think oh how you would value a player. If you click on Alshon Jeffery (they also have Kendall Wright, Jack Mewhort, Michael Brockers, Mohamed Sanu, EJ Manuel, Vernon Davis and Arian Foster), it estimates he has 8 years left in his career...I could be wrong, but that seems optimistic given how quickly some athletes churn anymore.

Anyways, just a boring day working from home and thought I'd share.

Don't invest in this. I recall reading that in their disclaimer, they say your shares can be revoked or otherwise rendered worthless at the discretion of the company.

 

I get what they were trying to do here, but football is too high risk. At any given moment, someone's career could end. They also didn't choose the right players.
