    When it comes to making and selling rookie jerseys, the NFL's got a quick release. In that way, they're the direct opposite of Tim Tebow.

    It's Tebow's jersey, though, that sits atop the list of top-selling NFL rookie jerseys. In fact, it's the fastest-selling rookie jersey of all-time, crushing the record set by Mark Sanchez last year.

    "It’s a pretty substantial difference between him and the next guy," NFL spokeswoman Joanna Hunter said of Tebow’s jersey sales.

    This wasn't tremendously difficult to predict. Tebow came to the NFL with a legion of fans built-in, and then Denver made a big splash by trading up to get him late in the first round.

    It also all worked out pretty conveniently from a jersey standpoint: Brandon Marshall just left town, making Tebow's number 15 available, and the Broncos have a similar color scheme to that of Tebow's college home, the Florida Gators.

    Second among rookies in jersey sales was Ndamukong Suh of the Detoit Lions, followed by the first-pick overall, Sam Bradford of the St. Louis Rams. Rounding out the top five were Eric Berry of the Kansas City Chiefs and the newest Dallas Cowboy, Dez Bryant.

    I forget, does Denver get a direct cut of those sales or is it part of the profit sharing?

    That must not be much of a record.

    I think it's just Raiders, Cowboys, and Redskins that get direct cuts. I think everyone else hits the profit share right off the bat.

    I may purchase one of those Teabag jerseys just so I can wear it while snorting rails, banging hookers, and perusing pro-antichrist literature

    Exactly...because you hate Tebow only because he's a Christian.

    Still can't believe he got picked at 25. McDaniels sure does love stacking the odds against himself and rolling the dice.

    I can't either. I thought he'd go in the 4th round.

    Even crazier, they mentioned on the NFL Network that Buffalo was trying to trade back into the 1st to get him as well and were disappointed when they were too late.

    If McDaniels wins starting that guy I myself will christen him the "QB Guru" and never question him again....or at least for a little while until he makes another headscratcher.
