What's tragic is that Witten doesn't have the best selling jersey of any Cowboy.
That raises a good question - what are the top selling Cowboy jerseys?

We know Tony is #1. Also in the top 5 are likely MBIII, Witten and Ware. After that?

I remember a funny story that Dan Patrick used to tell about how Michael Irvin complained that everytime he saw someone with an Aikman jersey, it was a nice, wholesome school kid from the suburbs, and when he saw his jersey it was "a brother that just finished doing three to five"

Why should he?

Because he's been the most consistently good player on the team for the longest time?

Maybe it's just my arrogance, but I don't know anyone could like another Cowboy more than Witten.

How much money do the players get of that jersey sales?

Say 3mil jerseys x $40 avg (real and fake jerseys?) = $120mil in sales

$120 mil?!?!?! Wow. Heck, 5% would be $6 mil.

I don't imagine that they get any money from sales of NFL jerseys

It's your arrogance. In this case, sports apparel sales will be strictly dictated by which player the buying public believes is the face of the franchise. Witten's a great tight end, but he's not that guy.

All that you say about him is probably true, but is he marketable? Does he have the looks and swagger that comes with being the QB? Is he in tabloids for dating celebrities?

It's your arrogance.

Witten is my favorite player too, and everyone laughed when I said he was the best tight end in the league two years ago. But he is not the face of the franchise. Romo being first is no surprise.
