The spring transfer portal window is closed and a lot of movement has come to an end as rosters are being finalized for the fall. Here is a look at the 10 biggest wide receiver acquisitions from the transfer portal this offseason.

1. EVAN STEWART, Oregon

Stewart might not have put up five-star numbers during his two seasons at Texas A&M but coach Jimbo Fisher’s offense was so stale and Stewart’s abilities were really not featured in College Station and that won’t be the case now that he’s transferring to Oregon.

Still, as a freshman Stewart led the Aggies in receptions and receiving yards, and then in only eight games as a sophomore, the former five-star from Frisco (Texas) Liberty led the team with four touchdowns. He could become one of the best in college football with the Ducks.

2. ISAIAH BOND, Texas

The top 100 receiver led Alabama last season in receptions (not receiving yards or touchdowns as Jermaine Burton led there) and Bond probably would have put up even bigger numbers in coach Kalen DeBoer’s offense, but he opted to leave the Crimson Tide with the retirement of Nick Saban.

Bond landed at Texas where he should also have a field day putting up stats in coach Steve Sarkisian’s offense, as Sark gets another massive weapon.

3. DEION BURKS, Oklahoma

Burks led Purdue in all receiving categories last season with 47 catches for 629 yards and seven touchdowns in an offense that was not exactly a juggernaut. The former three-star receiver, who became one of the best receivers in the Big Ten, is now headed to Oklahoma where the Sooners will throw the ball a lot more and put Burks in position to blow up even further.
