1. Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Dallas Cowboys
2. Tom Brady, QB, New England Patriots
3. Odell Beckham Jr., WR, New York Giants
4. Cam Newton, QB, Carolina Panthers
5. Rob Gronkowski, TE, New England Patriots
6. Carson Wentz, QB, Philadelphia Eagles
Ezekiel Elliott has the league's best-selling jersey. That's a very nice showing for a player that's yet to take his first NFL snap. Carson Wentz is another rookie with a strong jersey showing. If things go as planned for the Eagles and their rookie quarterback, Wentz isn't even going to see the field this year. Rookies always have an edge in jersey sales due to the simple fact that they are new to the league. No fans have those jerseys so they jump at the chance to get them. Even if those rookies aren't going to play. Tom Brady's place at #2 is the more impressive showing. Perhaps Patriots fans are showing their support for their suspended and supposedly disrespected hero. They love that Gronkowski fellow too.
Where's Jared Goff? Two rookies made the top-6 in jersey sales but neither was the first pick in the NFL Draft. The Los Angeles Rams selected former Cal quarterback Jared Goff with that first pick. It's the perfect mix for the top-selling jersey. The Rams return to Los Angeles and they select a quarterback with the first pick in the draft. A tall, blonde, California quarterback at that. The fans should be in a frenzy but it's southern California. They move at a little different pace. Goff's jersey probably isn't too far behind Wentz. As are some of the new players in new places like DeMarco Murray, Josh Norman, and Brock Osweiler.
Training camps can't open soon enough.
