jr1 Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 I would only buy retired player jerseys since so many players change teams in this era

A collegue from work is travelling to America this weekend and has offered to get a jersey from the NFL for me ( first proper one ) . Struggling to decide which player to get. I am currently wrestling between Edmunds or Milano . Any suggestions ? You are a fan, ukbuffalo. These are great choices and you probably can't go wrong with either. If you are going on play right now...probably Milano. If you are thinking long term...Edmunds or Milano. Tremaine may pass Milano very soon, but I just wonder if the team is going to be committed to keep him here in the long run. Edited November 15, 2018 by dollars 2 donuts

Kyle Williams will retire soon but is a solid timeless bill. Ive learned not to buy Jerseys of up and comers to early. Stevie Johnson Ej Manuel
LSHMEAB Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 Retired player jerseys are meant to be retired in the back of your closet. I'd go with Tre White.

I don’t have the same emotional attachments to legend players who I never saw play . I also don’t have any familiar connection who can tell me great stories like I have with my English football team. Therefore I would like to have someone’s who I have seen play and experienced. Williams’s is a good example as I’ve seen the tail end of his career.Or a young player

There's a point in adulthood where wearing the name of someone younger on your back becomes, or should become, passe. This is a nice try, but you can't stop this.
4_kidd_4 Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 #69 and your own name or #1 and “FAN” or “DAD” are always solid choices. Timeless. 1

Other than those guys, I only buy Bills legends - you can't go wrong with a Thurman, Jimbo, Bruuuuce, Reed, and on and on, jersey! That said, both Edmunds and Milano seem like good choices - gotta support the kids too! I’ve got a ton of Bills gear, but I’m not a jersey guy. I did accidentally wind up with a #34 and there’s a #78 around somewhere. I’d go with that or #12 or #83, or even #22, but if he’s only been a fan for 5 years that might not mean anything to him. Soooo.....I agree with someone above who points out that Edmunds is more likely to be around longer than Milano, though I hope we have a decade with both. Edited November 15, 2018 by Augie
