Pittman’s Pocket: HBCU Transfer Portal players with the highest NFL or Pro ceiling

The Transfer portal has been vital for a lot of HBCUs in football recruiting. We are going to check out a few players with potential to become NFL prospects who landed at HBCU programs.

1. Stephon Wright is a Grad Transfer from SMU to Southern University, that stands 6’5 and weighs 285 pounds. I feel he projects as a day three pick. He is a very disruptive pass rusher who just needs the right defense, and Southern may be a great fit for him.
2. Keelan Cox is another defensive end that stands 6’5, and weighs 247 pounds from Manvel, Texas. Texas Southern would be a great fit for the former Alabama and Wyoming standout. He can be a very explosive player off the ball.
3. Syncere Massey is a bigger edge rusher standing at 6’5 and weighing 325 pounds. Massey is a massive player with a great first step. What can Texas Southern do with Cox and Massey on the edge?
4. Avery Huff stands at 6’3 and weighs 205 pounds. He is a standout safety prospect from Fort Lauderdale FL. The former 4-star recruit is headed to FAMU for his final season. He can be a projected Day 2 pick who will be a must watch player for the Rattlers.
5. Corey Collier is another 4-star transfer who stands at 6’1 and weighs 190 pounds. The pound-for-pound safety from Miami and Florida is heading to Tallahassee to play for FAMU. He is also a player that could end up being drafted with a great season.
6. TyQuan Henderson is a big wide receiver standing at 6’3, and 200 pounds. The Canton, Mississippi native signed with Jackson State Tigers. He is a good player that should have scouts all over him.
7. Micah Cherry the 6’3 corner that weighs 172 pounds is a big-time prospect. He too is at Jackson State, and he is a long corner with good range.
