I partly agreed with da_man, but if u opened UD brands , can u imagine the auto is from S.Swift , Speedy Claxton ?? certainly UD has more great man like James , Kobe , KG and M.Jordan....but the auto base is much larger than Topps, also (especially for 07-08) Topps has exclusive contract with Yi and Oden , which can compete with K.Durant.....

As far as the set itself, I personally think the design is kind of bland. I'm a bigger fan of cards like Stadium Club or Upper Deck, with the card representing the entire game, not just the player. I like seeing the background and not just the player. Also, Topps couldn't come up with anything better than a white background? How much thought went into that?

Your RCs were pretty brutal. No Durant, Oden, or any of the other big name rookies. If I pulled that, I would've been disappointed.

The only positive I like from the product is the fact that they have 2 players on a card. It makes it more enjoyable for the player collectors to pursue not only their favorite players cards, but also have someone else on the card to enjoy.

Overall, I think you were too generous in your grade. If I pulled that box, I would've given Topps Co-Signers a C. If I was going to buy a box, Co-Signers would be pretty down on my list.
