Panini America on Location: Day One at the 2011 NFL PLAYERS Rookie Premiere

LOS ANGELES — A seemingly never-ending line of future NFL superstars filed through the Panini America player lounge on Wednesday, signing autographs, posing for pictures and contributing to an overhwlemingly fruitful first day at the 2011 NFL PLAYERS Rookie Premiere.

Headlining the guest list on Wednesday were the likes of Marcell Dareus, A.J. Green, Julio Jones, Andy Dalton, Von Miller, Blaine Gabbert and Christian Ponder, creating a collection of unique penmanship — on patches, leather pieces, jersey material and cards — that will help drives sales of Panini America football cards all year long.

The exhaustive gallery that follows will provide just a glimpse of the day’s events. The accompanying short video should offer a little more flavor.
