About Malakhi
Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Measuring in at 5’11 170-pounds, Payne has 134 carries for 1011 yards and 14 touchdowns. Payne is a power back and is also shifty. This bruiser has very good athletic ability due to very good change of direction, speed, balance, and good acceleration. Good quick start. Payne has good vision to weave through the defense or power through them. If a gap is covered, he uses his very good mental processing to pivot into a different hole and run though. He is a very good inside runner, and punishes the defense for tackling him. Good outside running. He gets yards after contact due to defenders slipping off him, or him running through them. Very good strength. In goal line situations, he is used for the easy yardage and has a nose for the endzone. He’s a great power back, that deserves some more love.
