Topps I think has been awful this year. I think Elite was good with their acetate cards because they really look good. Other than that Panini's last few products I think have been duds. Especially momentum which for the most part was a box that says hey come buy me to get autos of all the unknown rookies. Prominence ruined the other products like Rookies and Stars because it took their signature cards and combined them into the one product. Certified looks nice but they are back to sticker autos this year after being oncard last year. People complained about the redemptions so it appears as though they just got the players to sign a whole lot of stickers at the rookie premiere and now have done away with some of their on card stuff. 2012 also has a weak class compared to last year. This year its Luck, RG3, Richardson, Blackmon , Wilson or bust. Last year you had a lot of popular rookies in Cam, Dalton, Julio, AJ green, Ponder, Ingram, Von Miller, Ridley, Gabbert. What im trying to get at is the rookie premiere players have less of an impact and not necessarily big names in college or at big schools like the rookies in the 2011 class.
