John Hannah Patch Auto (from fusers last football break!)
Chad Jackson Jersey Auto (from Fuji in our last swap!)
Chris Jones (this one is a hard to find guy for sure!)
Curtis Martin (one of my new favorite cards in my collection, a super nice auto of him in the Pats uni, these have been hard to come by, and really low numbered!)
Zach Sudfeld (yeah, I know listed with the Jets, but in the Pats uni, and how could I say no for only 3 bucks dlvd?)
Teddy looks like a bulked up version of AC Slater from Saved by the Bell! Love the look of that Museum!
Too funny on the Bruschi.
And the Museum, I saw them and really liked the look as well. And I got that for like 10 bucks dlvd. Much better than buying a box and getting nothing I can use for sure.
Wow!! That JJ Watt is sweet! It's always nice to pick up Pats and Packer cards even the no-name guys. There is just such high demand from those collectors. But your Pats collection is top notch. Can't imagine what you had to spend to get there, lol. Collecting Redskins is easy... people just give those cards away.
Hey what you think about Brad Stevens? Think he is going to last there? I love basketball, just never have gotten in to collecting it. Pretty much a die-hard skins fan since the day I was born.
Honestly, I collect anything of the players that were either...
Drafted by the Pats and in their college uni
Signed as an undrafted free agent and in their college uni
Or any card of the guy shown in the Pats uni
I don't care so much about team designation on the card. If it says Cowboys and they are shown as a Patriot, I collect it.
What I dont' collect is anything of guys shown in other uniforms, even if it says Patriots on the card.
I have a few exceptions I can think of...
I have a Talib Auto in his college uni. Just because they don't have any of him in the Pats uni.
I have a Tony Franklin Auto in his college uni. Again, haven't found one in the Pats uni.
And I have two of those error Rated Rookie manufactured patch cards that they screwed up. I kind of consider them a mini set. Here are some scans of these two...
Nate Solder
JJ Watt
The reason I have both. The Watt has the Patriots logo and Solder was actually drafted by the Pats. So, I kept them both!
I should also say, I wish I had your luck with pulls. I never pull Patriots stuff. Man I would love some of those that you have there bud. Maybe if I ever pull something nice I will hit you up bud.
Oh, also, so, Asa Watson is Ben Watson's younger brother. He was signed by the Pats as an undrafted free agent. He didn't make the team. he got cut and then got signed by the Cowboys after that. Not sure where he is now, but man, they made a ton of cards of him. I think they tried to cash in on the fact that he was Ben Watson's brother and that they could sell a lot of his stuff. But, like you, a lot of people have no idea who he is! There are some nice cards of his, but his stuff is kind of not in super high demand since he is no longer with the team. I only collected some as he was in the Pats uni. I always seem to collect something of the new guys in the uni as I can. Nice cards though bud. Really nice. I wish I had that kind of 'Pats Luck'!
Haha, that's good to know on Asa, never knew that. Yea, now that I look at the card closely it does say "traded to Cowboys". What a collectors nightmare, who wants that teams name on a card they collect, lol.
So, bought couple boxes my local had on sale yesterday. Sure enough, picked up a Strata Signature Autograph Redemption of Garoppolo. I didn't think much of it, but turns out they are pretty sweet auto cards #d/50. I need to get these to a Patriots collector.
