NFL Power Rankings 2019: Best players by jersey number

A different twist on the NFL Power Rankings 2019 as each jersey No, from 1-99 is ranked by the best player in the league to wear that number.

The NFL has a huge market in several things, but one of the biggest is their jersey sales. Each and every year we hear about the fan bases going out and loading up on their favorite player’s jerseys — and some get so passionate they even burn a jersey when that player heads to a new team.

In addition to a player changing teams, there’s also usually a rush to find out what number each rookie will be wearing when they come into the NFL. For example, fans of the Cleveland Browns were impatiently waiting to see what number their top pick, Baker Mayfield would be wearing.

As soon as that was announced, No. 6 Cleveland jerseys were flying off the shelves. Some even made custom jerseys at a more expensive rate just so they wouldn’t have to wait to purchase one. The same will likely happen this season when some of the big names like Kyler Murray with the Arizona Cardinals and Dwayne Haskins with the Washington Redskins as they make it to the NFL.

While the NFL can judge things like sales of certain numbers, we take a different approach here and look beyond the popularity of the numbers worn by each player. This 2019 NFL Power Ranking will instead look at each number in the NFL, from 1-99, and rank the best players to currently wear that number on their jersey.

And with all that being said, we kick off our jersey number rankings with the Nos. 1-3.
