NFL Players Inc, the marketing and licensing arm of the NFL Players Association, on Wednesday unveiled its first-ever list of the “Rising 50,” the players projected to be future top-sellers of licensed merchandise.

The list, which is based on the 2014 season, includes NFL veterans as well as “emerging young stars” and even college players who have declared for the draft.

New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr., he of the jaw-dropping one-handed catches, tops the list, while Pittsburgh’s Le’Veon Bell, Heisman winner Marcus Mariota, Pittsburgh’s Antonio Brown and Indianapolis’ T.Y. Hilton round out the top five.

Representing Denver are: Emmanuel Sanders (11), Julius Thomas (14), C.J. Anderson (16), Ronnie Hillman (17-T), Montee Ball (17-T) and Brock Osweiler (50).

I am totally surprised that DT is not in the top 50.

Not sure what's more confusing: Anderson only ONE spot above Hillman and Ball despite vastly outperforming both, or Oz taking the final spot based on... his first and only career TD in three seasons? Nothing against the guy, but it's hard to see the basis for calling him a future top jersey-seller.

Apparently NFL Players Inc missed the second half of the season.
