The NFL Draft was only a couple days ago, but people are already buying hope in the form of rookie jerseys.

So far, Tim Tebow leads all rookie jersey sales on NFLShop.com followed by Ndamukong Suh, Sam Bradford, Eric Berry and Dez Bryant.

It's interesting that in the top five, we have guys taken No. 24 (Bryant) and No. 25 (Tebow).

While some players, like Tebow, are taking their college numbers, many are making changes.

Demaryius Thomas, who was No. 8 at Georgia Tech, is now No. 88. Jahvid Best, who was No. 4 at Cal is now No. 44.

No. 1 overall pick, Sam Bradford, who played with No. 14 at Oklahoma, will use No. 8. Dez Bryant, who was No. 1 at Oklahoma State, will line up with No. 88 and Jimmy Clausen, who wore No. 7 at Notre Dame, will wear No. 2 at Carolina.
