sabbath1981 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 This guy at work can get these authentic NFL jerseys for a sweet price. I've seen them and they look great. Problem is our squad sucks so hard I don't know who to get. I want to get a good current player that will be here in 5 five years. That eliminates Fletcher, Moss, Portis. Don't want a O-Linemen as that looks funny on a 155 pound dude. That eliminates Williams. Landry's play gets me excited but is he really a lock to be here in five years. That leaves only Orakpo I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumplestilskin Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I think Landry is a lock for five years IMO. When in doubt go oldschool. Got myself a riggins this year and I love it. You could be the first to have a Blaine Gabbert Jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superozman Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 It really depends on what exactly you want it for. A wear every game jersey of a player that is on the team? In all honesty, your players to look at (if available or you can send requests to him to get them shipped from China) are: Hall Orakpo Banks*** Armstrong*** (***Riskier, and doubtful China has caught up to these guys) Also, you could get a Moss or Portis, and then get a nice glass frame for them down the road, as I truly believe those 2 guys will be remembered in a positive light, with their careers as a Redskin.

RFK Lives Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I went Orakpo this year. That being stated, one of my friends this year, made it his mission to find a jersey of a well known Redskins player that you hardly see, so this year at FedEx, every game he took mental notes of jerseys he saw in the lot and in the stadium, he came up with Hall of Famer Ken Houston. When he unveiled it as a surprise, I was impressed. Pretty sure you cannot go wrong with Orakpo but dang, I don't know who else. Maybe Moss will still be here if we move him to the slot and get a real prototype #1 WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabbath1981 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 This feels like 2001-2003 when the only player worth getting was Lavar Arrington. I can't believe that there is only one player you can feel happy about getting. It's so depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Be careful tho dude They are most likely Chinese knockoffs However I have a burgundy Clinton Portis my uncle got me for 60 It looks sweet even the burgundy and lettering are off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 He gets them in bulk from overseas. He misrepresents them as authentic and genuine, he and sells them to fans such as you.

Boss_Hogg Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Authentic jerseys run for $300. Anything less should deemed counterfeit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Sorry to say, but any jersey looks funny on a 155 pound dude. So if you want Trent's jersey, just get it. (Oh, and that's not an insult...I'm about that weight I rock an Orakpo. Its all good.) Edit: And as long as you're happy with the product, and you aren't buying them from this guy because you think he's the only one who can get you this "great" price (on a likely fake)....then who cares if its a knockoff. Enjoy it, and your saved cash. But don't let this guy trick you into thinking he's got some connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washedup2 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 If your getting a "sweet price" , what do you care if you get a player who is not here long. Its a different story if you are paying $300. So, I say 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy their jersey today, they're playing somewhere else tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catatonic Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 The only problem with that is that players names from the distant past don't look right on modern jerseys. If I could get a Sonny jersey in the right style though, I'd jump all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabbath1981 Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 I should have been more specific. They are authentic looking jerseys. Probably not actually authentic. But I've seen them and they look amazing. I've decided to go with a white Sean Taylor jersey. Living and dead he moved me like no other player. For current players I considered Landry but that 2009 season is still somewhat fresh. Orakpo is a bit of enigma. I'm in Chicago so I catch about half the Skins games. The games I watch I have never seen him do squat. So I just don't identify with him as others do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
