    I read where that was actually one of his goals was to get the invite. It's super tough to get a roster spot as a long snapper, so he has a tall hill to climb. It is more likely he will not get drafted at all, but he knows that. Dude is a baller

    I would bet that nobody has ever been drafted strictly as a long snapper but somebody will sign him as a free agent. Long snapping is a useful skill that will create opportunities for anybody who is good at it.
    Brian Kinchen had retired from the NFL as a TE and was teaching and coaching at Parkview Baptist HS when the Patriots needed a long snapper for the Superbowl. Kinchen played one game for the Pats and got the ring he could never get at Cleveland or Miami.
