Each Happy Hobby Sports Card Newsletter For Collectors has a handful of great sports card subjects, helping sports card collectors working with limited budgets!
The final flagship product finally got released by Topps this month, and several sports card content creators, including myself, shared their 2025 Topps Update Rookie Card Rankings. What we do each time one of these Topps flagship products comes out is to take everyone’s rankings, mash them together, then average them out to figure out Average Rookie Card Rankings!
If you’ve ever played Fantasy Football, then you’re likely familiar with ADP (Average Draft Position), which averages out where players get drafted across thousands of Fantasy Football leagues. That’s what we’re attempting to do here – give you a wide angle perspective on what the best rookie cards to chase are from this product.
