Koraun Perdue TE

Koraun Perdue caught 4 passes for 103 yards and 1 touchdown in Middle Tennessee's 33-30 win over Delaware on Oct. 13, good for 20.3 CollegeFFB points. He could see his share of targets grow given how he produced against Delaware, and at $5M he looks like a value TE as Middle Tennessee plays at Florida International on Oct. 20.
