Titans hosted SEC OL on a Top 30 visit
TL;DR
The Tennessee Titans hosted Kentucky offensive lineman Jager Burton for a Top 30 visit ahead of the NFL draft. Burton, a fifth-year senior with 47 consecutive starts, is considered a Day 3 prospect and could help strengthen the Titans' offensive line.
As the days pass by ahead of the NFL draft, the speculation continues to grow, and analysts are scrambling to update what they are hearing. While this was happening outside of the team facility, Tennessee Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi and his staff were busy hosting another Top 30 visitor.
Justin Melo of the NFL Draft on Sports Illustrated reports that Kentucky interior offensive lineman Jager Burton is the latest prospect to visit the organization.
Burton is one of the more experienced center prospects in this class. The fifth-year senior started 47 consecutive games along the interior of the Wildcats offensive line. A natural center, he does have enough athleticism to offer some interior positional flexibility. While he has shown enough strength and quickness to succeed in the NFL, he could use some technical refinement to improve his production.
Viewed as a Day 3 prospect, Burton could be an option for the Titans, who hold six selections on the final day of the draft and must find a way to address the interior of their offensive line.
