Explosiveness is the word that defines Payne. With 1,011 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns this season, Payne has become one of 4A’s most dangerous homerun threats. His top end speed allows him to take the edge on defenders and turn routine runs into highlight worthy plays. Payne is beginning to develop as a receiving option, which will only elevate his stock even further. Defenses have struggled to contain his acceleration in open space and his ability to flip field position in a single carry makes him a go to player in this offense. Payne’s production and athletic traits make him a prime breakout candidate on the recruiting trail heading into the offseason.
