Since we are on the verge of all of these releases...

Where's all your money going?


And another question...in your opinion, which are the "must have" rookies to collect this year, and who are the rookies that are flying under the radar that might be a good investment?

My must have is montee ball and not just because hes a bronco but he is going to be the horse which manning uses to open up the field for our wideouts.

Well, I'm a USC grad/fan/collector ... pulled both of these in the last couple of months:








Granted, I'm biased, LOL, but I can see this scenario playing out: Vick and Foles split reps in the preseason ... Eagles trade Foles to a Jacksonville, Cleveland, etc., right before the start of the season ... Vick starts season as No. 1, then gets injured in Week 5 or 6 ... and then the Barkley era begins.

I'm telling you, I watched him play for four years ... he's a very, very good QB, and basically got punished for USC's underwhelming season this past year.

I told anyone and everyone who would listen that when LT Matt Kalil went into the NFL Draft last spring instead of coming back for his senior year, it was going to have a major impact on USC last season ... and then when Khaled Holmes (starting C) got hurt early in the season, Barkley had to make all of the line calls in addition to playing behind a patchwork line.

Every time I see Barkley, I think Drew Brees:

"Too short?" = Yep

"Questionable arm strength?" = Allegedly

"Leadership and smarts off the charts?" = Absolutely

Short story long, LOL, this is my guy this year.

GB Packer RCs and Limited.

Absolutely true.

collecting all Dee Milliner's and looking forward to ELITE..

Collecting any and all hits I pull lol The release that I am looking forward to right now is Inception.

I think Lacy is going to do really well, and Franklin will do decently (but not as well as Lacy), and so I'm going to be collecting them quite a bit. Of course, I'd be collecting who ever the Packers drafted anyway. Panini just put up a preview on their blog about Playbook this year, and the new booklets look pretty cool. They're continuing the acrylic books, and one version has a play drawn in it by the player. Definitely going to be trying to pick one of those up for both of them!

Anything NFL. I think Geno, Montee, and EJ Manuel will be top rookies

As for under the radar, haven't really looked that much yet. this years class is a tough one. Most of the players in it are under the radar to me lol
