Random Wax: 2018 Donruss Football

I've opened quite a bit of the 2018 Donruss football but I like the design so another pack of these is a no brainer.  I really like snow shots so this pack over delivered with not only this T.Y. Hilton but also the Clay Matthews Snow Days insert.  Good on Panini for snow themed cards.
Nice pull in this pack with stud Patrick Mahomes as well plenty of other stars from around the league. 
With two key Falcons in this pack I was real happy and Calvin Ridley had a very good rookie year.  I can't wait to see what else he and Julio Jones can do catching the ball.
I have no doubts I'll open more of these at some point.  The simple '84 Donruss design works with the football cards.  About the only thing missing is the player's position.  While I know that isn't important it still seems like there is room here for such a small inclusion.

Nice Joe Theismann card.

BREAKDOWN:
30 – Total Cards
4 – Blue Parallels
3 – Retired Greats

  1. I haven't seen a lot of Joe Theismann cards in Panini sets, definitely a nice addition though.

    1. I agree. The more retired greats the better.

  2. Man that Hilton is a good looking card. Snow + football cards = awesome football cards.
