ESPN - Randy Moss' new Oakland Raiders jersey was the best selling shirt in the NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles led the league in merchandising sales as they reached the Super Bowl for the first time in 25 seasons.

Moss, traded by the Minnesota Vikings to Oakland, led individual sales -- not unusual for a high-profile player who joins a new team and has his number changed (84 to 18). That his new team is the Raiders, a traditionally strong seller, adds to the appeal.

As usual, several first-round draft choices were among the top 25, led by Tampa Bay running back Carnell Williams, who was eighth.
