Looking at Jersey Prices as Indicator of Who Will Be Back

Was just watching the NFLN about McNabb's benching... They talked about the report that like 2 days after McNabb was benched that his jersey was discounted in the team store (along with Albert Haynesworth, who's jersey had been discounted for weeks now).

So, IIRC, our team has done similar things before with players that wouldn't be bac. Or at least I know we've discussed that here before. Anyway, I looked through our team store and all the jerseys of the main guys we're worried about are regular priced.

Only discounted jerseys we have in our team store are of guys that are already gone. I know this is reaching, but hey, we're on our way to 1-15 and we've already discussed the draft ad nauseam...

Do you think this is a sign of security in terms of those guys being back? (DWill, TD, etc.)

No, contract talks are a sign of security.

You're right, but too bad our FO is working under a gag order and we don't know WTF is going on, so I have to look elsewhere.

I've seen Gambles jersey go on sale in spurts for like 4 years, so take that for what it's worth.

Well, I know sometimes they can become slightly discounted if there's only limited sizes left (like only available in small) until they get more in, but they do that everywhere, like Eastbay and all the big retail stores...

our crappy store sells "white" jerseys for cheap every year right after the superbowl, I got a Davis jersey for $25, they also sell Gamble, Marshall, at the time Jarrett..... any jersey they had in white was on sale, it doesn't mean poo, other then they might have too many and are trying to get rid of them

      Would you take a chance on Cam Ward?

      They definitely shied away in part of Deion and the hype machine. Hell, even the Browns' football people didn't want him. Just look at the faces in that room as the pick was being announced. LOL  But honestly, Shedeur checks all the boxes of guys who put up big numbers in college but don't project well to the NFL. QB friendly pass happy offense. Bad defense that forces the team to chase points. Weak schedule. Marginal measurables and talent. I mean, let's be honest, what plus physical traits does he have at the NFL level? Size? Below average. Arm? Below average. Mobility? Average. Then you add in the Travis Hunter factor of an all world athlete being your primary target. Finally, you have to look at his playing style. He basically plays like Johnny Manziel. There's pretty much only two guys who have made that style of play work for them in the modern era and that's Favre and Mahomes and they both have absolute cannon arms. Caleb Williams has that cannon and he's still struggling to make it work. Yeah, the Deion circus hurt him but when you objectively look at his NFL projection then combine it with the reports that he handled the whole pre-draft process extremely poorly it's not a shock he fell to the 5th. If his name was Shedeur Johnson instead of Shedeur Sanders there wouldn't have been this massive hype train around him. The media hype misled a lot of people regarding his NFL projection. He basically projects as a backup and the last thing you want out of a backup is a circus. Their fault or not, that's why guys like The Golden Calf of Bristol, Kaepernick, and Cam never carved out careers as backups.

      *disclaimer, no need to tell us what happened in the end, just quit watching after he gets the Mountain on the ground.  I mean, he technically beat him.  Renfrow isn't cocky enough to then get leg swept and then have all that other stuff happen to him.

      Well, it seems a little confusing, but I guess not: I guess they're thinking that we're going to the way that our receivers go. Barnwell just ranked us 31 at the (so-called) offensive skill positions. ESPN just doesn't think that much of the Panthers. I wonder if it was the O-line that bumped us up one spot, because they obviously don't think that much of our safety position, or our pass-rush. In any event, there should be ample enough bulletin board material here for the team.
