You're talking about players with a decade+ difference in age. Jeter is in the latter part of his career and is fighting age right now.

Tulowitzki is a much better bet at being a better player over the next however many years. He's not even in his prime yet and Jeter is obviously nearing the final stages of his.

I don't know if he'll be worth 20M a year in the future and the contract didn't seem necessary yet when the Rockies had him signed for another 3-4 years already but if he keeps putting up seasons like his last two then he'll be just as productive if not more than Jeter was in his prime.
