Back to the cube again. There really were a lot of 1988 Topps in this. It doesn't seem as bad when it is football content as opposed to baseball content, since there does seem to be a lot less of that out there in repack land.
Offensive Line content is always welcome, even if it is from the era where they'd actually get card. Also, note that this is the first appearance of Curtis Martin in this cube. He ends up showing up a lot.
Cousineau was a #1 overall draft pick of the Buffalo Bills. He opted for the CFL and Montreal instead. Still, the draft pick they got when his rights were traded to Cleveland turned into Jim Kelly. So everything did work out OK in the end. Also, a guy named Jumpy ends up right in the middle of this scan. Or Jummpy if you read the front of the card. Or James if you read other, far less interesting cards. Note we've already got the 2nd Curtis Martin card.
This group really summarizes the frequent contents of the cube. 1988 Topps. Randy Moss. A WLAF helmet. No Curtis Martin, but still another Jets card. A defensive player with the ball card too! That's a motif you're very unlikely to see on any Jets cards in 2026 releases. Even if Aaron Glenn himself did show up last year with a coach card.
There you have it!
