Casey Kreiter Appreciation Thread

[Draft Crazy]

I missed this signing from a few days ago.

Kreiter has signed a one year deal with the Giants.

So long Iowa boy!

Always appreciate Casey's story.

He had just taken a teaching job here in Iowa City, thinking he wasn't going to get an NFL shot after he graduated... He was in a camp the year before.. (I want to say Dallas)... He thought it was over. Took the teaching job... Right before the school year started he got the call from Denver... Left Iowa City schools scrambling for a teacher..

I always felt like Kreiter did a good job here, but Denver never really seemed to be wanting to lock into him longer term. Kept signing one year deals and beating out competition every year. Denver had LS's in camp, once in awhile a LS on the PS, but always someone there to put pressure on him. (Not often do you see a LS fresh off a pro bowl feel heat like that) Here is to hoping he does well on the Giants... Class A person is Casey Kreiter... Very happy to see him sticking in the NFL. Met this dad after a game in Cincinnati once. Great family.

Wish him well for sure. Can't remember one bad snap in his time with the Broncos. Hoping this move doesn't come back to bite us in the butt because one bad snap could be the difference between victory and defeat.

Casey has been pretty steady here. Long snappers seem like anyone can do it until you get a bad one.

Good luck to him, and thank you for being a solid special teams contributer.

Not sure what I was missing but for a guy who was dependable every year I always found it odd how Denver always had another LS in camp or even at times on the PS... Can't be a character concern.. Maybe they want a better tackling long snapper? I don't know. Kreiter got down the field pretty good though.

Did the Giants hire McD

Glad he got another job my guess money.Cheaper this way.

Maybe one of those camp or PS guys really impressed them. I agree, though. Weird we would let him walk unless money had something to do with it, but it looked like he didn't sign for much more than the minimum.

PS guy was cut in a week. Kreiter beat out anyone who competed in camp with him the last 4 years. One of the two guys on roster now was worked out last October.

Well, shit. I don't know, then. Maybe he banged Fangio's wife?

That is one theory!

 

[femurov]

I figured out why we didn't resign him...

I believe he has a girlfriend and not a wife.

Maybe he has both.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Maybe he has both.

Or two of each?

He would be broke, if he did.
