Bowman Chrome Football Virtual Case Break

jebjeb1 · 11-05-2007, 02:42 PM

Really bored today here at work and thought this might be interesting.

Based on the insert pack odds from last year and tentative current checklist, I created an Excel program that can generate "virtual breaks" based on these 2 combos. For example if the random number assumes I hit a gold base refractor it then assigns a random card # in the set for that hit.

This should give everyone a feel for what mutliple case breaks might look like. Here were the major hits on 4 case break. If anyone else would like be to do their case break for kicks just post how many cases you will be breaking. I made some assumptions on the Group A auto list.

Base Gold Ref (3) - JP Losman, Edge, Boldin
Base Orange Ref (1) - Mushin Muhammad

Blue Ref RC (6) - Dwane Jarrett, Calvin Johnson, Jamarcus Russell, Zac Taylor, Brady Quinn, Trent Edwards,
Xfractor RC (9) - Jarrett, Marshawn Lynch, Craig Davis (2), Greg Olsen, Joe Thomas (2), Johnnie Lee Higgins, Jeff Rowe
Gold Ref RC (2) - Kevin Kolb, Patrick Willis
Orange Ref RC (1) - Dallas Baker

Group A Autos (2) - Jamarcus Russell, Drew Stanton
Blue Autos (2) - Chris Leak, Zac Taylor
Gold Auto (1) - Chris Leak
Orange Auto (1) - Sidney Rice

CaptainBOHICA · 11-05-2007, 03:31 PM

Insert odds from last year are listed in Beckett. Since the set is the same set up as last year it is pretty easy to set up.

I also assumed a 10% increase in production this year.

Cases only have 18 packs of 4 cards each so you can fly through busting this product.

otmack2o · 11-05-2007, 04:06 PM

Hmmm, I just noticed something interesting on the 2005 & 2006 Bowman Chrome checklists. The SP autos are the first autographs listed (going by card number)...

Did you account for the additonal 5 non-SP autos in 2007? That takes care of your 10% increase in auto production, haha

Yes I have all 55 autos in the mix.

Very cool jeb. Wish I was smart enough with the computer to come up with something like that.

This year that will not be the case as BC75 Calvin Johnson about 20 cards in.

Here are the 10 I assumed would be group A. QBs always tend to charge more for their autos so I think it will be a lot of the top QB picks.

Adrian Peterson
Calvin Johnson
Marshawn Lynch
Jarmarcus Russell
Brady Quinn
Drew Stanton
Troy Smith
Ted Ginn
John Beck
Kevin Kolb
