Panini Limited stays true to its name, delivering just 15 cards per $375 hobby box.
But without the autographs of most of the rookies that matter, is this autograph-driving product worth investing in? Read our full assessment below

Donruss is releasing on March 20th at $375 dollars. Each box contains 5 packs of 3 cards, with 2 autographs (1 of which is an RPA), 1 memorabilia card, 1 base parallel, and 1 2004 Limited Tribute or Exposure insert.
Here are the cards you can expect to unwrap if you open a box.
The 2023 edition of Panini Limited Football brings forth a diverse range of content, showcasing classic designs alongside autographs and memorabilia offerings.
Within its 244-card base set, collectors will find a mix of veterans and rookies, including Rookie Patch Autographs, Rookie Patch Autographs Jumbo, and Rookie Autographs, each accompanied by various parallels.
Additionally, the familiar Limited Gamers insert presents game-worn memorabilia with detailed information on the date and game it was worn. Furthermore, collectors can anticipate an assortment of booklet inclusions, including Draft Day Signatures, Limited Rookie, Quad Signatures, and others, adding depth to the collection.
Again, though, note that there won’t be autographs of Bryce Young or, most notably, CJ Stroud. …Or Will Levis. Without those big names, the autograph checklists lose their luster.
The parallels are “Spotlight” themed, with several different colors and tiers of scarcity. If you’re looking for autograph cards, sets included Limited Membership and Ring of Honor.
Limited also insists on bringing an array of booklet cards to fill the Limited library. These cards, which are tough to display, ship or sell, include Draft Day Signatures, Partnership Duals, Quad Signatures and Limited Rookies.
Limited Gamers include game-used swatches, something that’s getting increasingly harder to find.
Is the 2023 Limited Football release worth the dice roll? If so, how should you approach it?

Is it a good hold as a sealed product? Considering a $375 release day price, let’s look at how 2023 Limited football stacks up to years prior.
Here’s the value of the last few years based on recent sales (as of 3/19/2024)
The story here is the same as usual, basically: the rookie class can dramatically swing the price of a box, and we have quite a track record of previous releases to back this up.
If you were to have bought any of the boxes above at the $375 release day price of 2023 Limited, only 2020 (Herbert, Burrow, Hurts, Jefferson, Tua, etc) and 2018 (Josh Allen and Lamar) would have been years that were worth the investment.
Even 2018 (Josh Allen and Lamar) would have not been profitable enough to make it a good investment.
So, for that reason alone, I’d warn against investing in this one as a long-term hold. Of course, the sports card market could rise as a whole again, but from the numbers above I don’t think we’re seeing enough from the 2023 class (without Stroud, at that) to think they’ll be better than the 2020 class, and that’s what it would take to make this a good investment.
If you’re looking to invest in singles, the best cards would be an RPA of your favorite rookie that appears on the auto checklist.
For the non-auto Stroud and Young rookies, I’d advice passing: it would be much better to invest in rookies of those players from other top brands like Prizm, Optic, Select, and more. Those will age better than Limited rookie inserts.
Donruss Football is a quick rip that leaves you with a lot to lose, and it won’t be a great long-term hold. What do you think of this product? What will it be worth in 5 years? Let us know on Twitter @card_lines.
