part rant part comedy: I officially suck at rookie prospecting lol
Title says it all...I suck lol I was just reflecting on my collecting as a whole, and I officially can't rookie prospect for crap. CaseS in point lol:

1) Jeremy Lin- was ticked his rookie year when I hit 2 dupe RC SP autos of his out of 2 boxes. I traded them for less than 30 each for nothing special....that was a week before his values exploded

2) Kaepernick- I hit two of his 11 Timeless Treasures auto RCs...and traded them when they booked for 25 a piece. Obviously that was a mistake

3) Devin Hester- I HELD OFF ON TRADING HIS STUFF CAUSE I WAS SURE HE'D BE AMAZING....anyone want it now? no?

That's it...I just need to stop trading RCs lol I'll just keep them all, regardless of if they suck or not! lol

Hey I would venture to bet that if most were honest they would only hit a good one in maybe 1 out of 10 times. Its part of it that keeps this hobby interesting. Just think og a few years ago of some that were supposed to be can not miss. Just a few examples; Jamarcus Russell, probably could put Mark Sanchez on that group now, Matt Leinart, Tim Couch, thats just a few and their hype was all much higher than say Tom Brady?

The worst rookie I ever collected was Matt Leinart. He was big time in college and then when he got drafted by the Cardinals who at the time had Boldin and Fitzgerald I thought he would be great. Well I was wrong lol.
