The Panini NFL Player of The Day promotion is back for its 20th season on the field and in hobby shops -- and that means bonus cards and potentially even more for some collectors.

For one collector that will mean spending time with an NFL player but for many others there will be autographs and other stuff to be had.

“Not too many things in the NFL have been around as long as Tom Brady and, just like the legendary quarterback, our Player of the Day program has been incredibly successful,” said Jason Howarth, Panini VP of Marketing, in a prepared release. “In addition to the lucky collectors who have had a chance to spend a day with an NFL player, millions more have won prizes while hobby shops have sold more packs of Panini trading cards.”

Like many collectors, Buzz is a fan of grading and knows that there are many reasons that collectors choose to slab cards. Sometimes it's to enhance the appeal and protect them when selling. Other times it's to protect an investment for the long-term or to protect for sentimental reasons. Or, it might be just for fun or curiosity about a potential grade.

Here's this month's grading diary here on The Buzz ...

The Card: Ronald Acuña Jr. 2018 Topps Chrome Update #HMT25 Rookie Card
The Reason Graded: I only opened a couple of mega boxes for this brand but did land this guy -- and, man, do I wish this card had used the bat-down photo. (What could have been?) I recently revisited a few of my boxes holding the finds of my buys last year and this one struck me as a clean example worth a slab, especially with him having had an elite season coming up just short of being the youngest member of the elite 40-40 Club.
The Grade: BGS 9.5

Reality Check: Turns out I was right, though this is a card that's heavily graded with a growing pop report since I submitted this one. There was a 10 grade right after mine in the serial-numbering line and there have been plenty of 9.5s graded since -- and even the 10s aren't all that rare for this one. There's plenty here to feed the demand for a guy who should be on collector radars for years. You'll see more of Acuña here.

Keep reading for more of this month's new slabs for Buzz.

Reminder: There were two big Browns rookies last year ...

Cleveland RB Nick Chubb had a day and his 88-yard TD run was a big, big highlight against the old Cleveland Browns for the new Cleveland Browns as they beat the Baltimore Ravens 40-25. Chubb had 20 carries for 165 yards and three TDs in the game and added three catches for 18 in the win. There's no doubt that QB Baker Mayfield was the top Browns rookie on cardboard last year -- and probably still is this year -- but this was Chubb's first 100-yard game of the year but was not a career-high. He had a 176-yard outing last year -- one of four 100-yard games -- but his three TDs this week was a career-high mark.

All that said, Chubb's Rookie Cards and autos from 2018 releases look like safe buys on the lower side -- especially if you can find some bargain prices -- as long as the team delivers on its potential and improves upon last year. His pricier stuff still won't be Mayfield-priced so there's definitely some upside there if the team delivers. Seriously, have you watched this run?
