Making it and advancing earns the teams units that get paid out over a six year period. Here is a pretty good article from the Washington Post that explains the process and shows the amounts earned for each round.

If they're smart they'll put off the renewal until the end of the summer so the wounds aren't so fresh. Their best shot at getting any kind of percentage of returners is hoping for some short memories or cases of dementia.
