No, your calendar is not playing tricks on you. Upper Deck is indeed releasing the final 2011 football product just before the 2012 NFL season in 2011 Upper Deck Exquisite Football, which releases next week. This practice began a couple of years ago due to various issues on UD’s side of things. What they started then, with the current year’s top rookies tied in with last year’s rookie class has started a trend (which I don’t completely agree with). That said, this is your chance to get Upper Deck highest-end football product and the last rookie cards of Cam Newton and company as well as new rookie cards of Andrew Luck, RGIII and more.
