Previously, I have written about Dani Dennis-Sutton and RJ Maryland.

Today, we’re taking a look at Jager Burton, a center out of the University of Kentucky. As you might expect, his RAS is about what you’d expect from the Packers. For a center, he’s a bit undersized, but he’s an elite athlete with tremendous movement skills.

While he played all 3 positions along the interior of the line, he settled in at Center for his Senior year and turned in his best season. While he comes in a tick short, his 6’3” is still a perfectly fine size for a Center. He certainly looks the part of an interior lineman, earning him the nickname “Moose.

” Aside from being the exact kind of nickname you want for an offensive lineman, it’s also the name of an early shoegaze band (they are actually the band that it’s said spawned the “shoegaze” label, but that’s neither here nor there). Per Dane Brugler’s The Beast , Burton didn’t give up any sacks in the 2025 season. If you watched even a single game of the UK quarterbacks last year, you’d understand that feat is even more impressive than it sounds on its face.
