Wes Welker 2007 game used jersey
The 2007 season was Welker's first season with the Patriots. He was acquired from the Dolphins in the offseason and finished the 2007 season leading the league in receptions for the first time (2007, 2009, 2011) with 112 receptions. Season long totals would be 112 catches for 1175 yards and 8 TDs, he also still had some return duties that year. He last wore this jersey on 10/28 against the Redskins (9 rec 89 yards, 1 TD) week 8, but I believe he started wearing the jersey week 5. These are Welker's stats from week 5 to 8 (all blue jersey games)

week 5 10/7/2007 vs. CLE 4 rec 19 yards
week 6 10/14/2007 @DAL 11 rec 124 yards 2 TDs this was the "the real #81... get your popcorn ready" game
week 7 10/21/2007 @MIA 9 rec 138 yards 2 TDs
week 8 10/28/2007 vs. WAS 9 rec 89 yards 1 TD

totals 33 rec 370 yards 5 TDs

Welker wore a different blue jersey in weeks 1 (@NYJ) and 2 (SD). In the Miami game in week 7, Welker has a hole in his left shoulder (grey area, near the shoulder number 8) that has been repaired. Yellow helmet marks/filed paint are still present on the jersey as well as brown marks on the front numbers from the football. Some turf burn/helmet marks are present on the right shoulder area.

Julian Edelman 2013 Salute to Service Game used jersey NFL Auction PSA/DNA COA

I've been searching for this jersey for a while, and earlier in the year was finally able to pick it up. It was last worn 11/24/2013 in a SNF home game against Peyton Manning's Broncos. The Pats trailed 24-0 at halftime before storming back with 31 straight unanswered points taking the lead before the Broncos tied it to force overtime. Ultimately the Patriots would prevail. In this game Jules had 9 catches for 110 yards and 2 TDs. 2013 was Edelman's breakout year (105 rec, 1,056 yards, 6 rec TDs).

I believe the jersey is a size 38 (PSA/DNA covers up the second digit), which I have seen for Nike Edelman jerseys. 2013 was the last year that Edelman wore sleeves, before switching to open arm holes in the 2014 season. There are a couple of team repairs present and it is in an unwashed state following the Broncos game. I believe Edelman started wearing this jersey during the Tampa regular season game until the Denver game.

9/22 Tampa Bay 7 rec 44 yards, 2 punt ret 29 yards
10/13 New Orleans 5 rec 57 yards, 3 punt ret 9 yards
10/27 Miami 2 rec 7 yards, 3 punt ret 13 yards
11/3 Pittsburgh 1 rec 11 yards, 2 punt ret 43 yards
11/24 Denver 9 rec 110 yards 2 TDs, 3 punt ret 39 yards

totals 24 rec 229 rec yards 2 TDs, 13 ret 133 yards
