Best to collect would be based on your personal preferences and value really shouldn't matter, as there are going to be rcs that hold their value and others that completely bomb (aka Ryan Leaf). You can pay hundreds for a rookie auto only to find it worthless the next year, that is part of why I stopped collecting as there is just too much hype on RCs anymore. Anyway, when I collected football I thought that Topps Chrome was one of the best to collect, I liked the design of the cards and the set was heavily collected. Topps also seemed to be heavily collected so that was another good one however there have been a bunch of fakes of some of those rookie autos, so not sure about those. Both those sets have always been heavily collected by set builders which means there should be some value to them down the road. I feel off brands like Inception, Momentum, etc while neat don't have as many collectors due to price or style. Everyone has there own tastes and you have to collect what you like as this is not an investment you will get a good return for. The only things that sell well 10 years down the road are staples like Manning, Brady, Rice, etc. and we are still in an era of overproduction for cards.
