Had lots of time today. Big update!
First off, for foleylion08.
Sticking with my "Legends" theme, I didn't want to do current players unless I had a good reason. Starting with 1990 Pro Set, they had subsets at the beginning of the set for award winners and other such nonsense. I think that applies here. I always liked Topps having record breakers in their sets, so it worked here as well. Well, record holders.

I finally found a use for the banners that Pro set put on the draft pick cards, as well as the Hall of Famers. Suppose I could do the HOFers, but that would be most of them and would be redundant at some point.
Also did the John Hannah he asked for:

Keep the requests coming.

Love the Brady! Good idea on the record breaker/holder variation.

Thanks. Gives me a ton of flexibility.

Love the Elways. As a kid Pro Set was always my favorite mainly because all the photos were action shots.
I love the red border you're using but I also loved the light-blue border from the Series III set. Can you duplicate that?

You mean this:

I just recently started recollecting the originals and never had any of the series 3 cards. Where I live, it was impossible to get series 2 as well. Special trips to Green Bay were the only way to get them and that wasn't too often. I love that blue. My two favorite cards from the entire set are the Barry Sanders rookie and the Sterling Sharpe rookie, which prominently showed the blue, just like this:

And while I'm at it, here are the rest of the cards I did today:

You can tell that I focused slightly on the Bills.
