Default College uniform vs training camp shorts

I know a lot of people hate college uniform cards but I got to say that cards with players in shorts at training camp are just as bad or worse. And don't get me started on draft day cards. At least players look like actual football players in college uniforms

Seems to be hard to keep people happy either way.

I prefer training camp shots personally.

I prefer camp shorts - at least there is pro uni stuff floating around the photos.

College with non fade to uniform or helmet. Have a N. Suh in his Black-Shirt Nebraska Uniform. Thought that is kinda nice. I enjoy when teams utilize a odd uniform pairing and it’s utilized in a card. ND in Green, etc.

Both are better than Combine shots. See 2014 Topps Chrome.

Combine shots are the worst, slightly beating out bad airbrush jobs. I prefer college uniform, but that's because I'm a college fan. I do think camp photos have their place in the lower end, early season products.

1. NFL uniform action shots
2. NFL uniform stationary pictures
3. Training camp imagery
4. Good photoshop/airbrushing NFL uniforms
5. College uniform pictures
6. Bad photoshop/airbrushing NFL uniforms
7. Waiting a full calendar year for 2021 products
8. Combine images
9. Draft night pictures (save that for the back of the card)

Its a crime that Travis Kelce's Topps Chrome card is what it is. What an abomination.

That’s not true. Panini has current college players in 2022 Immaculate and NT. It’s just that Onyx and Leaf has the most NIL players, but no collegiate license due to the Panini exclusive

My favorite pics are :

1. When the players card has action pics in College Uniform in a Bowl Game where you can see the Bowl patches on the sleeves / shoulder pads.

2. A College Uniformed pic with other teammates such as O’lineman or D’backs who have their uniform numbers visible.

3. When a player has a College photo shows a opponent in full College Uniform who will never have a College photo card produced or for that matter any card. Example, Chad Kelsay tackling Tony Banks, Ian Gold tackling a Colorado WR, Jay Riemersma with his entire name in the back of his Wolverine uniform in the card.
