What do I get if I buy a custom Zack Mills jersey and wear it to a game?
(answer: beer thrown in my face)
But I really would do it for some reward/motivation.

I don't recommend getting a jersey for any current players. They're always changing teams, and it's rare to find a guy who sticks with us through thick and thin. Get a jersey for a legendany player like Sonny Jurgensen, Sammy Baugh, Art Monk, Charlie Taylor, Darrell Green, Monte Coleman . . . (you get the idea).

if you go to some pro shops they sell the replica-authentics, which is a hybrid of the two. it has stitched on numbers but replica names. they are rare. the cost is cheaper than authentics and better quality than replicas

yeah, don't buy a current player, I've made that mistake twice. My first jersey was a Gus Ferrotte jersey, and he sucked and then two years ago I bought a Coles jersey because he had that long contract and I thought he would be around awhile, but we all know how that turned out.

you can't worry about who might and might not be on the team in a year or two, if there is a current player that you really like , then get his jersey.
here are a couple safe bets (in case your a worrier)
arrington
rogers
springs
washington
portis
moss
cooley
jansen
samuels

NFl Jersey Sizes:

4XL = 58
5XL = 60
p.s. It's good to be back. I was down in 49'er and Raiders land for a week and strutted my 'Skins gear there. Got a few nasty looks but other than that I think they rather liked my Portis Jersey.

Wow, people actually care over there?! The only place I get nasty looks is when I rock my Skins stuff up near B-more. But that's ALSO OFFICIALLY Skins territory.

This site should help with the size, decent prices too. http://www.nflstore.net/
After buying a Coles authentic last season I'm not buying another jersey (I have 8, 6 being replicas)
Pick a past great and be happy in the knowledge they ain't getting traded, injured or imprisoned.

My advice: NEVER buy a jersey of any new or young player. I would only buy a jersey of a Life Long Redskins or one that retired a Redskin. I only have 1 jersey now and it is a 1945 Throwback with the #45
Get one from the alltime greats.

Keep an eye on Ebay for jerseys too.

Yep, that's what I'd do as well!
