Best Long Snapper of All-Time?

Long snapper is one of the most important, yet most overlooked positions in the game. Those guys get no love. So, let's give them some love. Who do you think is the best long snapper of all-time?

Re: Best Long Snapper of All-Time?

I have no idea. I don't think any statistics are kept on long snapping from which to make an argument.

I'll pick Danny Aiken of the Patriots because he was a four-year scholarship player at Virginia - his sole duty being longsnapping - and if I'm gonna be a homer, it might as well be for a long snapper.

Re: Best Long Snapper of All-Time?

Yeah, that's basically what this is. Post the long snapper that's been on your favorite team for a long time. I don't think anyone's going to discuss the merits of proper launch angle or ease of snap catch among long snappers. In fact, it's better that you never hear about the long snapper. That way you know he's not ****ing up his only job.

Long snapper?

Personally I don't even know the long snapper on any team CURRENTLY much less think of the best all time.
