Trading cards aren't what they used to be. The days of sitting around with friends and pouring over a Beckett magazine seeing the value of the cards you just purchased are certainly in the past. Trading cards have been replaced with Madden and virtual tournaments.
But that doesn't mean trading cards aren't still a thing, and believe it or not the value of cards are actually starting to climb again! The folks at Panini America work with the NFLPA at their Rookie Premiere event, and although the event was cancelled this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, Chase Claypool and Anthony McFarland Jr. were invited to the event and fans get an early glimpse of them in their new uniforms.
Check out McFarland in the black and gold.
