Yes, we all know The Tom Brady rookie contenders autographs that have sold for $1 million. But, the Peyton Manning playoff contenders rookie is much better buy, pound-for-pound. There’s still really “cheap” compared to the Brady rookie autos in comparison. Brady is the best quarterback ever, but I still enjoyed watching Peyton play more. This is the most I’ve ever paid for a sports card, and it is firmly locked away in my PC. These autographs are not numbered, but they are limited to 200 copies. I think this is the post that gets me to 10,000 Mantel points. Look out for some sort of giveaway when I get to that goal!

In the football cards, Playoff Contenders has always been one of the top products of the year, especially for rookies. The rookie autographs from players like Peyton Manning, Randy Moss and Tom Brady carry high premiums. The rare parallels of these cards make them even more desirable. As aCowboys fan, I was able to get this PSA 9 Zeke Elliott rookie Contenders autograph for a remarkably low price. Yes, I would prefer a card in a PSA 10 and grade But for now, I’m happy to have this one.
