Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
One of the top young backs in West Georgia, Walton may not have been the lead back this past season as a freshman, but he certainly made a name for himself as he ran for a respectable 226 yards and five touchdowns while sharing the load with several other backs. Ranked as the No. 4 RB and the No. 13 overall prospect in Georgia for the 2028 class, Walton is a back that runs with power, balance, and has enough quickness to elude defenders down the field. He brings a good frame at his age at 5-foot-1 190-pounds and is starting to see his recruitment pick up, adding a big SEC offer this week from the Florida Gators.

is ready today to handle a load of carries at the varsity level. He is listed at 5’10 193 and is noticeably built on tape. He is still finding that extra gear as a runner, but he is difficult to bring down once he gets going. For his age, Walton appears to have an advanced knowledge of the position. He stays square to the line when he runs, keeping the entire field in his sights as he pinpoints running lanes. He doesn’t overrun his blockers, keeping a hand on his blocks and sticks on them as he climbs each level. Walton is a multi-sport athlete. He is in need of that extra gear, which he should find naturally.

Jacez brings that big boy energy when carrying the rock. If you’re 5’10 and 190 pounds of thick muscle in 8th grade, the nickname “Mac Truck” is an easy sell. With that being said, I am buying all of it. Being blessed with a bigger frame has its benefits by playing a physical sport. You would be foolish to assume that Jacez is only good for in between the tackle grunt work. He has enough speed to get the edge and make tacklers miss. The last name Walton is not foreign to recruiters right now due to Jacez’s older brother,
