Hard Knocks Bump?

footfutbol · 08-19-2022, 05:59 AM

Haven't followed closely in previous years, but is it typical for the team followed in hard knocks to get a larger than normal price bump in the preseason?

As a lowly Lions fan, It's been tough sledding getting St. Brown and Swift cards this past month or so w/o heavy bidding/shilling.

Hoping things settle once the lions actually start playing

Curious how it is now with in season hard knocks. Last year was Colts and this year will be Cardinals.

Any time players get more positive spotlights, like this, it helps their values.

I had some Tony Siragusa autos on ebay back in the day, and no one was touching them. Not even after the Ravens won the Super Bowl. But as soon as Hard Knocks came out, and people fell in love with the man, they were snatched up immediately.

After watching this season, I really like Aidan Hutchinson. Sure, the man cant sing a Michael Jackson song to save his life. But he seems like a cool dude. If i was still collecting cards, I'd want to add some of his stuff now that I learned more about him, thanks to the show.

Never thought I would be thinking to myself this summer- I can’t wait to buy a nice card of the Lions 6th round linebacker.
Rodrigo looks like he’s going to be one hard hitting SOB though and a lot of fun to watch.

In the game he didn’t look as good as on here knocks but it’s only first preseason. Always want the late rounders to succeed on any team. Always nice to find a Diamond in the rough.

I’ve watched a lot of Hard Knocks over the years and ended up drafting some players for fantasy because they looked good on the show and were hyped by the coaches during preseason.

Once the season actually started they hardly ever played. Just a word of warning…

Probably Barry Sanders would see a bump.

Hard Knocks is the KOD (Kiss of Death). Those teams for some reason never make the playoffs the year they are featured.

Pretty sure 6 of those teams have made the playoffs that were on hard knocks.

Is anyone watching this an coming away impressed with Dan Campbell?

There was a lot of criticism with his hire with him not having any coordinator experience. The players seem to be responding to him. Maybe it is not about Xs and Os with head coaches. To be seen what happens in the regular season of course.

Ruffy · 08-29-2022, 06:58 PM

Sort of lost respect for Campbell when he cried like a baby when his team lost a game. "Waaaaaa. We try so hard but cant win. Waaaaa" Sounds like a 8 year old youth player

Haven't gotten to that point yet. That is not impressive.
