Have you tried bigdawgpossessions.com I know that they carry all his gloves, shoes etc.

If you are looking for a RG Pats Jersey.....might as well give up....presently there are none known to exist.:mad:

I know someone who is trying to move his first game rookie cleats if interested?

So it's 100% impossible to acquire a Gronkowski Pats game worn jersey?

Those are not game issued. Scott has told me they order them, have players sign numbers, then sew them on. Never meant for use in a game, or customized the way a player likes them.

Based on my years of experience dealing with The Patriots.....not even Rob Gronkowski could get you his Jersey.....and I am not exaggerating. This has been like this since at least the late 90s. I have heard the same story repeatedly from the players.

They released 2 sets of Jerseys in 2009 for Charity but Rob was not playing then. As I understand, the NFL forced the Pats to sell their Legacy and International Jerseys. Last year Brady donated a Jersey to Charity which created a firestorm within the Patriots Organization because the NFL made the request directly to the player and not ownership.

I'm not saying it cannot be done, but this strict inventory policy is not coincidental......it is a well thought out plan by Jonathan Kraft. I don't know exactly why, but it is definitely a strict Team policy.

Thank you for the explanation Mulligans. I guess I will focus on Darren McFadden items instead. I like both McFadden and Gronkowski. Oh, and Peyton Hillis.

An NFL equipment manager once mentioned that to me, so it is definitely an accurate statement

Looks like one might have escaped the clutches of the Patriots equipment staff.

The 2010 Red Throwbacks were given to the players....a handful have sold privately over the last year.

Any reasons why the Pats would allow the players just to keep the 2010 Red Throwbacks vs. the other jerseys?

Appears to be a very good price for the first REAL Gronkowski Pats jersey and it's from his rookie year!!!!

Ouch....$6700 is big money to spend on a TE in his 2nd Season under any circumstance....Marino, Elway, Favre, Brees, Rodgers....Now, I think thats a better way to spend 7K. :)

Mulligans,

I have to respectfully disagree...Marino, Favre, Elway, Brees and Rodgers can be found in the marketplace...this is the FIRST Gronkowski to hit the market, a rookie jersey and the Pats don't sell many of their game jerseys...moreover, of the ones they've sold since Gronk has been in the league, they have yet to sell one of his...if this was sold through NFL Auctions or Hunts Super Bowl Auction, it would have been a $10k jersey in IMO...
