Each Pack contains eleven (11) base set cards + four (4) chrome base set cards + one (1) chrome refractor card. Five (5) Chrome Prospect Black & White RayWave refractor parallels per box
As has been the case for Bowman Draft for two decades now, the product is a combination of Bowman and Bowman Chrome. Each has their own base set that’s essentially the same checklist but with standard card stock and chromium being the difference.
A total of 200 players are included in the main set. Although not exclusively 2022 draft picks, there is a heavy emphasis on them. Other prospects are also included.
There’s also the parallels. Bowman Draft cards come with:
Sky Blue – /499
Purple – /250
