Jimbo Fisher has some decisions to make this offseason. After losing most of his offense from last season, he returns a solid defense and plenty of talented, yet unproven, pieces.

Texas A&M football got hot after losing to Alabama early last season and nearly made a College Football Playoff appearance. If the Aggies are going to get back to playoff contention in 2021, they’ll need to add more talent and experience and that’s where the transfer portal comes into play.

Right now, Texas A&M only added one guy in the transfer portal in Tennessee offensive tackle Jahmir Johnson but there are more potential targets on the board.

Who else should Fisher target in the portal this offseason?

The offensive line is going to need some depth for the 2021 season after losing Carson Green, Jared Hocker, Ryan McCollum and Dan Moore Jr. That’s four out of the five spots opening along with losing the starting quarterback so the offense is going to need plenty of help.

Every team that contends for a national title has plenty of depth in the trenches and Texas A&M saw how important that was to its run in 2020.

That’s where Justice Oluwaseun comes into play.

Oluwaseun is considered the top available offensive line transfer on the market, according to 247Sports, and he is being courted by a handful of teams since entering the portal. He has a mammoth 6-2, 325-pound frame and can play both inside and outside on the line.

The All-Mountain West candidate should have an immediate impact wherever he goes and Texas A&M should consider adding a guy with some experience and can play at a high level to replace those departing linemen rather than younger unproven guys.
