Who Are the 2016 Select Football XRC Redemptions?
By Ryan Cracknell | Hobby Editor
With the 2017 NFL Draft in the books, let’s shift our attention back to 2016.
Specifically, let’s look at the 2016 Select Football XRC redemptions and figure out who the mystery players should be.
Randomly inserted in packs of 2016 Select Football, the redemptions come in five categories, all of which involve 2017 draft picks. Because it’s a 2016 product that came out a couple of months before the first name was called, the cards themselves don’t mention any names. Rather, it’s all about position and when they were picked.
Quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends and defensive players are the categories they fall under. According to the redemption cards, the first five players selected in each category make the final checklist.
So because Mitchell Trubisky was the first quarterback picked, he’s 2016 Select XRC Redemption #QB1.
Besides the basic redemptions, each has three parallels, which are noted on the back: Tie-Dye Prizms, Gold Prizms, and Black Prizms.
Wondering who your redemption is good for but don’t want to look through the entire draft results (even if they are neatly organized)? Here’s a breakdown of who to expect when the final cards are sent out.

Why is Engram TE3 when he was picked before Njoku?
Fixed. Thanks!
I have Jamal Adams and Evan Engram as my two Select redemptions. I did not realize there are 3 different parallels that are possible, though.
I love Three’s Company and Larry Dallas that was great Ryan…man time flies!!!!
Are these cards have autographs?
No.
say what! heheheh anxious to see how they come out!
I have a number of these cards, including a gold parallel. Where are they priced? I’ve been checking guides for months.
Thanks.
@Matthew — I checked with the pricing team and they should be posted in the OPG tomorrow morning (the database does an update every night).
