Beautiful card for sure. It was talked about 4-5 pages ago in more detail but any NT with a non streaky auto I think is good long term.

If you know about Veriswap, a guy had a PSA 9 on there for around $7500, but I think he recently raised the price to around $8300. Either way if you could get it around that price that would be a steal, or possible trade for it.

What do people think of his 2017 Vertex RPA? Probably my favorite looking of all his, and still can be acquired for relatively cheap.

Neat card. A little busy in design. And it lacks the brand name that even stuff like Immaculate has.

This list is from a few years ago, but it ranks it 4th out of the 6 on card RPA true rookies.

Forgot about Vertex, it’s definitely in the “value” range too for on card auto’s, I don’t like it enough to buy it personally though.

There is one at auction right now on eBay numbered to /25 I believe but has a terrible auto.

If I were to re-rank this list, I would move the certified cuts, XR, and vertex out of the top 10. Probably behind origins or something as there is no real following for any of those brands.

I think I would swap the contenders rookie ticket auto with the impeccable auto as well. I really like the impeccable auto, but just feel that the contenders auto is more of the flagship card behind the NT RPA

Not sure I would have any college jersey autos before any of the pro jersey autos either

I would also have Donruss elite draft picks as his worst rookie. Just an awful design. Would swap score and classics as well.

I like the vertex parallels with the multicolor patches. Not sure how I feel about the granite parallel borders, but their patches on the/25 look nicer. Not sure I would classify these as value though. They seem to be priced at a pretty healthy premium to some other options.

I’d go:
NT
Contenders
Flawless

As my 1,2,3.

Wouldl love to put Immaculate up there, but the terrible condition issues kind of spoil it for me.

NT 161 is the top dog ,
Gold Prizm , followed by cracked ice / Champ ticket contenders
Flawless RPA
The rest is all a debate

I might be biased, but I think it's his best looking card from his rookie year. Might not be considered a true rookie, but I think it might have the best eye appeal of all of his first year cards. Now I don't own an RPA, but I do own a number of his other rookies, including his Contenders Rookie Ticket Auto, and the NT Rookie Signature is my favorite Mahomes card in my collection.

Wow! It looks great in a PSA slab too! Very nice!

Just wish it had a rookie emblem on it, but of course great looking card!

Are we talking about products in general or what?

No one really seems to care about Immaculate or Impeccable in football, I'm guessing they are desirable in basketball because they probably use GU stuff? I don't do basketball so I could be wrong. If we're talking Patrick Mahomes real base RCs then I'd want:
NT
Contenders
-----
Everything else

I like the Flawless Gem Autos even though they are horizontal as they are the real Flawless RC, I never owned one myself though. The Flawess insert RPA being so popular is funny to me.

The fact that the base is /20 makes me really want one... the fact that it's the less recognizable of the Flawless releases keeps be from actually buying one.

I just can't drop $20-30K on the card knowing that the RPA is the more popular card.

For me my ranking is just based on my personal taste in regards to the design of the card

Have seen the lineage comment a couple of times now on this thread when top rookies come up in discussion. 2010 vs. 2012 (first in bball) it’s not decades apart and nobody in the market today was ripping either 20+ years ago.

IMO these high-ends preferences rotate in waves and will more then likely shuffle in the next 5-10 years and probably even replaced by whatever fanatics pushes.

Sweet card. Why isn't it a rookie?
