Estimated grades? Thanks

Estimated grades? Thanks
Hi, new to the board here, was thinking of getting some cards from the 80's graded. I was able to recently purchase 7 full NFL sets of NM/M cards from 80-89. Most of the important cards are off center so 9.5 or a 10 will be a reach. With that said, have been browsing ebay and these boards trying to get an idea of what kind of grade i may expect. If you could give me your opinions, it would be greatly appreciated. Some of my scans make the corners look a worse then they are, might be cause i kept them in penny sleeves for the scans. Scans are a little small too. Corners are sharp in person. BGS will be in my area next saturday so debating on getting some raw reviews of these and sending them along if its worth it. The Shaq is just a card I've had since i was kid, looks mint. Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: Estimated grades? Thanks
Montana rookie may not be worth grading as the centering if off from left to right, this will probably make the overall grade not desirable. Other than that it looks really nice. I used to have a montana bgs 8.5. It had 9 centering which was close to 55/45 I thought. But I think you would get high subs on all except the centering which they will probably give you a 6.5 or 7 for that, and overall an 8?

Shaq card looks nice, from what I can see it looks like a 9.5 gem mint. Are the corners sharp? The centering looks 50/50, edges and surface look great.

Aikman looks nice to, centering is off just a tiny little from top to bottom, probably 55/45, but possibly another 9.5 gem mint card.

I'm not a professional grader, but those cards look really nice. If they have sharp corners and the surface looks really nice, go for it, because the centering on them looks great.
