Rush Primetime Pack (Thursday: MIN vs. PHI)

Now that we've established the contents of each pack, let's delve into a few crucial aspects regarding the player cards featured in them and explore their potential expected value (EV).

To begin, let's examine some key facts of this drop. Obviously, with two powerhouse teams, and a variety of good players, the expected value is likely very attractive. Let's go into the specifics of what players are included in this drop. 

Total: 28 Players 

• QB: 2
• RB: 6
• WR: 7
• TE: 3
• DEF: 8
• K: 2

Projected Value Per Pack: $78.50

Projected EV: +$38.50

Rush Sunday Primetime Pack (Sunday: MIA vs. NE)

Moving onto the second pack drop today here is the breakout of players included in these packs: 

Total: 24 Players 

• QB: 2
• RB: 2
• WR: 7
• TE: 3
• DEF: 8
• K: 2

Projected Value Per Pack: $75.75

Projected EV: +$35.75

Now, calculating the EV of these packs is rather straightforward. Multiply the number of cards for each player at each tier by their price/marketplace value, or in our instance projected value ($350,000 total) for all tiers, and then divide the result by the number of packs available (4610). While it's evident that not every pack will attain that anticipated value, it's worth noting that there are a few chances to get a card worth $2,000, or more. With so much star power in these packs like Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Rahmondre Stevenson, Justin Jefferson, Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, and more, the allure and excitement of these packs are likely to lead to a quick sellout! So be ready at 6:00 p.m. ET today! Be sure to check out all the available players here.

In conclusion, Reignmakers fans have good reason to be excited about this pack drop, and the ability to add some big names to the portfolio.
