Also, there are many "deities" who wold claim the dragonborn to their realm: Sithis "in the void", Hircine in the Hunting Grounds, Nocturnal in the Twilight Sepulcher... Nevertheless, it is a possibility, since he slayed Alduin, The Nord God of Destruction. It is however questionable wheather they can manage it. given how easily Kodlak´s spirit was purged the tie to Hircine is, relatively, week... the tie to Nocturnal might not be any more powerful... and Sithis... well noone is sure what it actualy is...

Dragonborn can also be archmage of winterhold... holding almost unparalleled combination of power of power within him. And well you see, mages can extend their life in TES for long long time... hell...

Plus he has entrance to Sovngarde "by right of blood"... meaning that blood connection to Akatosh binds him to some part of Aetherius... (which is beyond reach of Daedra and Sithis)... and general teory that Aedra can´t have real influence on reality was somehow shattered when Martin Septim summoned Akatosh... or when Dwarves tapped into Lorkhan´s heart...

In this I think he surpases both Nerevar(ine) and Hero of Kvatch... Daedra are neither all knowing nor omnipotent, neither is Sithis, their ability to act within Aedra created Nirn and Aetherius is limited... read Azura and the box (and the annoying dwemer who always found a loophole), even if Dragonborn is nord by game canon he can live for centuries if he "tops his restoration" school of magic. There are certainly magicians that lived longer. The last remaining uncorupted snow elf
