Ok instead of obviously posting 90 plus player cards I decided to run through the refractors and inserts rather then type in that many. But to say the least among the vets there is luck, flacco, wilson, brees, big ben, lynch and many many more. Then for the 2013 rookie class every1 from ellington, eifert, hunter, among others.

Frederick attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and played for the Wisconsin Badgers football team from 2009 to 2012. After graduating high school early to participate in spring practice, Frederick became the first true freshman in Badgers history to start a season-opening game on the offensive line, when he lined up at center against Northern Illinois. An ankle injury in Week 2 knocked him out of the starting lineup, but he returned for the final two games, at left guard, after center Peter Konz was sidelined (blood clots) and John Moffitt was moved to center. For the season, he played in five games, starting four (two at center and two at left guard).

In order to preserve a year of Frederick's NCAA eligibility, Wisconsin coaching staff decided to redshirt him in 2010. In his redshirt sophomore season, Frederick replaced John Moffitt, starting 11 of 13 games at left guard. For two games, he had to substitute for Peter Konz at center.

Following Konz' departure for the 2012 NFL Draft, Frederick was moved to center his junior season. He started all 13 games at center and was named a first-team All-American by Pro Football Weekly.

NFL Draft: 2013 / Round: 1 / Pick: 31

Seems like you're getting a good variety in parallels and inserts. Keep up the good work! Just a note: What I would do in Showcase is to pick two to three of my favorite cards. That way other members whom have yet to extensively collect 2013 Chrome like you can get a visual idea of what to expect. As an example, I Showcased my 2012 Chrome complete set with three of my favorite rookies from 2012. Also note that in general, trades are done in the trade threads. Showcase is not a trade thread. But as other members visually view your new found gems, they are most interested in adding your cards to their collection in trades via Showcase. Just another avenue for you to network in. If you're keeping them as a PC? Just politely notate that, if not? It could be a potential trade for you. It puts the information out that you as a forum member is very active and aggressively looking into new aquisitions and making new acquaintances. Just my humble opinion to help you Showcase your 2013 Chrome collection. Before you know it, you'll have complete sets made! Once again, fantastic job!

If I may tsands11, I never heard of a trade forum in my life. I thought that forums were discussions of collections and related hobby items. When I became a member, it was a interesting journey of reading reviews of cards on CBC and slowly finding my way to CCW. At first I was very hesitant. The majority of my first threads were in Showcase, trading was not something I had planned on as I had a modest collection compared to CCW members. It was at this point that my life drastically changed. Several members complimented on my modest collection and inquired if I would trade cards with them. To my shock and horror, I could not believe what had happened. Why would anyone want these base cards and inserts? Needless to say, I pursued these trades, followed the rookie addendum per the letter, and today, I am honored to be a small part of such a massive online forum and community. Keep up the great job, and please keep us all informed via Showcase in any new cards or past cards you have collected!

Thanks for your info man, yeah the post was to showcase what 3 retail boxes have yielded me so far. As for the trading thing, man I really need to get into gear and sort through and process all my cards I have. In 2005 I started them just as a fun thing 1 day and it grew into every trip to walmart leaving with a small pack, now probably having well over 5,000-7,500 cards easy. Then in late 2011 early 2012 seasons my kids decided to start and thats when my collection took its leap. Just as I said I need to organize my collections and show more of what I have and get into the trading more.

But again Toshi thanks again for all the advice and insight from 1 recent collector to another.

tsands - the Frederick card I noticed the same thing but as a lineman he doesn't really have too many stats so i figured that is why they did that.
