Best Looking "Football" Parallels?

Panini is putting out some of their best stuff this year with this being their last run of NFL trading cards.

I guess they should had done this before now.

But, before this hobby becomes a complete Monopoly I am enjoying everything that Panini is throwing a me currently.

When I did a search for 2025 Prizm NY Giants cards, hence yesterday's pickup, I also found another round of cards I quite enjoyed and had to get some.

This is probably the most footballist, is this a word, football parallel out there with these Pigskin parallels.

The border looks like, well, a football. Each of these is numbered to 180 and look even better in person.

I chased down what Giants I could. Not showing is Tyrone Tracy and Brian Burns as I didn't have time to snap pics of them to add to this post.

 

I really wanted the team set but considering the Giants strong draft class last year and the prices for those players, I won't be adding Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo or Abdul Carter anytime soon or at all.

I may have to look again at what is being offered in 2025 Prizm for Giants as it's been magical so far.

So, what do you think? Are these the best looking football parallels you have seen?

Single Card Mail Day:2025 Prizm Lockdown Silver Dexter Lawrence

2025 wasn't the greatest season or the greatest season for one of their best players, Dexter Lawrence.

But, I think 2026 will be different for him and different for this team.

I was recently playing around on eBay and just looked up 2025 Prizm Giants cards since I haven't had the opportunity to add any.

As I was scrolling, I found one that caught my eye, not only because it was shiny, but I really liked the photo.

There is just something about a Giants player flattening a Cowboys one that really draws my eyes.

The photo with the shiny effect and the price of under $2 made this an obvious grab for this Single Card Mail Day.

Single Card Mail Day:2025 Mosaic Silver Cam Skattebo

It's crazy to think that this is my first post on here of the New Year.

Time has gotten away from me.

I have missed so much on posting. The actual excitement around the Giants team this year with the hiring of John Harbaugh. The new free agent acquisitions. The building of a new culture in what feels might finally be the turnaround year for this team and I haven't posted anything.

That changes today!

Time to start posting on here again. It won't be daily, but there will be some new posts coming up.

Today I am showing off one of my newest pickups from the 2025 draft class.

 

A 2025 Mosaic Silver parallel of Cam Skattebo. I feel Mosaic doesn't get the credit it deserves, it's just too bad this is the last year of it before Topps takes over football.

I don't have much in terms of cards for Cam, probably under ten total, which is sad as he was a lot of fun to watch last year up until his season ending injury. But, this newest addition is by far my favorite thus far.

I am hoping when he hits the field this fall, he will be back at 100% and tearing up and destroying defenses again.

In the meantime, I plan to add more cards of him and hopefully some day I will be able to add an autographed card. He is needed for the overall Giants autograph collection too.

Let me know how your teams offseason has been so far in comments!
