Review of 2007 Press Pass Football Cards

The first product featuring the 2007 NFL draft class is 2007 Press Pass Football. The set, as always, features the players in their college uniforms and offers collectors the chance to pick up some autographs of their favorite players before they start in the NFL.

While Press Pass is a product that some collectors refuse to buy, it maintains to be a very popular product for two reasons. The first reason is that it simply comes out before all of the major brands make their releases, so people who want to start collecting their favorite 2007 rookies buy this product early. The other reason is that some collectors just like the idea that their favorite players are pictured in their college uniforms.

All of the top players in the 2007 NFL Draft are included in 2007 Press Pass Football including Brady Quinn, JaMarcus Russell, Dwayne Bowe and Marshawn Lynch, among others. 2007 Press Pass Football also offers the opportunity to pick up some cards of other young NFL stars such as Reggie Bush.
