If you hadn't noticed, our third wave of Black Friday boxes with discounted prices have dropped right now right here as BlowoutCards.com is bringing a wave approach to today's sales.

There are two more waves of discounted boxes to come later in today's big sale ... so keep watching.

Here are five boxes/cases that caught this collector’s eye in this third wave.

2017 Panini Donruss Optic NFL Mega Box lot (20 boxes)
These boxes can run streaky between their heavy dose of Rated Rookies and their Red & Yellow parallels -- and with rookies like Patrick Mahomes and Christian McCaffrey in there (among others) that means you have the potential for some monster boxes. These case-size lots aren't the cheapest out there but they have some big potential for sure on the rookie front but also offer some safety with a hit and inserts, too. Check out this past Buzz Break, for example. At the time I ripped it, some of those guys weren't as big as they are now. Whether you're ripping or opting to pick up some boxes or cases to hold, this might be a safe one either way.

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?

There was no crying playing against the Dolphins -- it was a laugher.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown and RB Mark Ingram lit things up against Miami and all could be seeing some interesting cardboard gains after a Ravens record-setting 59-10 rout to open the season. It was the highest-scoring mark in the league since 2012, despite all of the crazy offensive teams of the last few years.

Jackson's Rookie Cards are found in last year's releases, while Brown is a 2019 rookie and Ingram's arrival came back in 2011. Their stats? Jackson completed 17 of 20 passes for 324 yards and five TDs and didn't have much time to run. Brown had just four catches but ended with 147 yards and a pair of scores, while Ingram, had 14 carries but 107 yard and two TDs in the win. All are strong numbers, albeit against a team that looks to be headed for worst in the league dishonors. Jackson will probably remain the go-to of this trio with his late-season highlights last year paving the way for even more hype now. Brown might be the go-to new-pull guy but could have up and down games as plenty of new cards drop. Ingram also could have some ups and downs but he's got plenty of cardboard to choose from -- but not much in his new colors. (Yet.)
