The Panini America Real-Time Reveal: 2016 Gridiron RCs of Top NFL Draft Picks

CHICAGO — Thirty-two different times last night during a wild first round of the 2016 NFL Draft, league commissioner Roger Goodell called out a name and made a dream come true for one of the most talented young football players on the planet. And in just a few days, Panini America will capture that seminal, stage-crossing moment with a special NFL Draft Day set created exclusively for the Panini Gridiron digital trading card app.

The NFL Draft Day set will honor key players in attendance at the 2016 NFL Draft by incorporating photos taken just seconds after they were selected. In addition, Panini America also will create rare facsimile autograph versions of those cards. During last night’s first round, we unveiled each player’s NFL Draft Day card live on Twitter.

But just in case you missed any of our live Twitter reveals, we’ve provided a compelling recap in the gallery that follows. Be sure to download the Panini Gridiron app now so you’ll be ready to start collecting the NFL Draft Day insert as soon as the cards go live.

Also during last night’s first round, we previewed the upcoming 2016 Donruss Football design with special virtual trading cards showcasing most of last night’s selections.

Enjoy the action and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for 2016 NFL Draft updates throughout the weekend.
