What's Buzz-worthy: The new stuff is on the way but Patrick Mahomes' presence here is a reason you see it ripped here -- well, that and Donruss/Optic might be my favorite lower-end release of last year with its colorful designs and energy. It also doesn't hurt that this box included a parallel of two top rookies from last year. Even better? These have been making appearances in retail discount bins so you have a reason to go hunting. If that's not your thing, a few formats can be found at the link above with guaranteed ink. These Special Edition blasters do include a memorabilia card every time, which seems like a safer rip than standard blasters for the same original price.
