SEC Football: Top 25 transfer additions of the 2022 offseason
By Matt Melton
10. TE Michael Trigg – Ole Miss Rebels
A transfer from USC, Trigg totaled only seven receptions a year ago for the Trojans as a freshman, resulting in 109 yards and a touchdown. A player with an exciting skill-set at 6-foot-4, Trigg has the potential to be a day one starter at Ole Miss in 2022, as well as one of the top tight ends in the SEC.
9. CB Jarrick Bernard-Converse – LSU Tigers
One of SEC Football’s most experienced offseason transfers, Bernard-Converse comes to LSU after starting for four seasons at Oklahoma State, a span in which he totaled nearly 200 tackles. A versatile defensive back at 6-foot-1, Bernard-Converse will be an instant impact player in the Tigers secondary this season as one of the leaders of the 2022 LSU defense.
8. WR Jadon Haselwood – Arkansas Razorbacks
Haselwood comes to Arkansas after three seasons at Oklahoma, a span that included a breakout 2021 season in which the former five-star had 39 receptions for 399 yards and six touchdowns. The Oklahoma transfer should be the top wideout for the Razorbacks this season, and has all the potential to be one of the top wide receivers in the SEC in 2022.
7. LB Drew Sanders – Arkansas Razorbacks
A five-star prospect out of high school, Sanders comes to Arkansas from Alabama where he saw time each of the past two seasons for the Crimson Tide, totaling 33 tackles during that span. With his time in Tuscaloosa primarily coming in a reserve role, Sanders should get a chance to start with the Razorbacks in 2022, and could end up being one of SEC Football’s biggest breakout players among the names who transferred this offseason.
6. WR Jermaine Burton – Alabama Crimson Tide
One of Georgia’s top wide receivers the past two seasons, Burton totaled 53 receptions during his time in Athens, translating to 901 yards and eight touchdowns. Burton could very easily be the WR1 from a loaded wide receiver group in Tuscaloosa this season, with the junior likely to see a jump in production similar to Jameson Williams a year ago.
