Is their anything potentially valuable in a 2009 Donruss Elite Football Hobby Box?

I won this box today at Beckett Media in Dallas. I have zero knowledge in modern football cards. Is there potentially anything in this box that would make for a fun and potentially profitable rip? I see on ebay where boxes sell for around $80.00 plus shipping, so worst case scenario, I dump it on ebay. (it's advertised on the BST for $72.00 including shipping)

Just trying to decide if its worth it to take a gamble on busting it, and if so, what are my potential "hits" to watch out for and what are their approximate value?

    Here's another item I won there as well. Supposedly, these were given out at the NFL draft, and in order to get them, people there had to call in a special number on their Sprint phone and claim them. They said there is only about 100 of them.

    This was the first thing I got there today, they gave everyone an envelope upon entering and this was inside mine. I think it's just a regular card in a dressed up slab.

    Unless you hit one of the top rookie autos, you are probably better off dumping it on eBay.

    I've seen the Sanchez card before, but I thought they were a trade show giveaway rather than a giveaway at the draft. Perhaps they were given at both.

    Yes, that appears to be the base card of Michael Crabtree from 2009 Playoff Prestige in a fancy slab. Might bring decent value on eBay though.
