There are a handful of recent grad transfer/immediately eligible transfer TEs who should be considered for fantasy purposes this season, listed below in loosely descending order based upon potential impact:

• Tre McKitty, Georgia (from Florida St) – last season was 23/241-0, very similar to his 2018 production.
• Tony Poljan Virginia (from Central Michigan) – a former QB who full time to TE in 2019 and had 33/496-4, for a strong 15.0 yards per reception average.
• Mitchell Brinkman, South Florida (from Northern Illinois) – breakout performance in 2019 going 34/445-3. USF doesn’t return many receivers, so Brinkman could emerge as a top target.
• John Raine, Northwestern (from Florida Atlantic) – Raine was 38/343-6 last year at FAU. Northwestern will likely have Peyton Ramsey at QB, who utilized his TEs well in the Indiana offense.
• Kenny Yeboah, Ole Miss (from Temple) – briefly committed to Baylor before landing at Ole Miss, was 19/233-5 last season which was a slight uptick from his 2017 & 2018 stats.
• Jordan Wilson, Florida St (from UCLA) – best season was 2017 with 16/155-2, last season in 6 games went for 7/72-0 – *Aug 17 update – Wilson is out for the season with an undisclosed injury, team will apply for a medical waiver for next season.
• Daniel Imatorbhebhe, Illinois (from USC) – joins his brother Josh at Illinois. An interesting case as he last suited up in the 2016 & 2017 seasons for a total of 25/394-4 combined.
