What's Buzz-worthy: This brand was a favorite of mine across a few sports in the past and this one shows how, despite all those aging rookies, there can still be fireworks in older NFL boxes big and small. This set is loaded with guys I'd want -- there are a bunch of Alabama Crimson Tide guys in the release and several popped up here -- and even this small pack is all about variety, which I think is a big plus. Landing a super rare (for here) card of a top name in NFL history? It's an A-plus box. The Brady, a parallel of a card type only found in this format that may or may not have been opened as heavily as others, likely pays for a big chunk of the box lot that I landed a few of these from -- if not everything. This is a card I'll slab for my stash -- it's clean -- and it's not alone among notable cards found in a small grouping of these cereal boxes. (You'll see another at some point soon.) ... I like this one as you don't have to break the bank to chase some rookies -- and this has them -- and I dig the typical variety here a lot. The acetate cards and Optic/Prizm cards here make it a solid mix where I'll definitely do more of these if I can keep finding them in a reasonable price.
