TOP 2017 LONG SNAPPERS:

  • Thomas Fletcher left no doubt at all that he is the best 2017 Long Snapper in the country. Handles pressure as well as anyone I have ever had and has zero wasted movement. He could snap in college right now and he is only heading into his junior year.
  • Mitch Hall was excellent all weekend and he is beginning to start with a lot of confidence. Incredible form.
  • Nate Durham shows great power and speed on the ball.
  • Austin Reeves is a Long Snapper that could take the top spot within the year. Silent, but deadly.
  • Shiloh Mast is really let the ball fly. Size will be key for him.
  • Joe Calcagno is on the cusp of absolute dominance. Watch him closely over the next year.
  • Jake Pagel is strong and consistent. Watch him.
  • Matthew Smith is a flat out stud. Lots of potential.
  • Koltin Anderson is a very strong Long Snapper with tons of raw power.
  • Ryan Culbertson never disappoints and can snap at the next level.
  • Kyle O’Connor might be one of the most accurate Long Snappers in his class.
  • Kyle Gibbs was very impressive. He is very raw and could be one of the greats.
  • Devin Noth has all of the tools to be one of the best ever.
  • Jake Hess is coming along nicely and headed in the right direction. Consistency of speed will be key.

Notables: Kobe Paez, Paul Lawless, Noah Rodriguez-Trammel, Chris Clore, Matt Baldeck, Gabe Hantz, Colin Scott, Dylan Castro, Jacob Potter

  • My rankings are NOT done just from The Rubio Target
  • My rankings are NOT done from some mathematical formula.
  • My rankings ARE done by me and only me. That is why they take a good amount of time. (Think of it this way, it takes MONTHS to build a Rolls Royce but only hours to build an average car)
  • My rankings are based off of this blog I wrote about what makes a Long Snapper great.
  • If you would like anything added to your profile page, simply email me (Rubio@RubioLongSnapping.com) the information and consider it done.
  • All Long Snappers are ranked after their first fall camp of their freshman year in high school.

A Long Snapper has the ability to adjust their ranking anytime I see them LIVE, not on video.
