Draftanomics has him No. 241; no publishable public-board consensus exists yet.
Jeremy Payne turned a modest freshman workload into a real sophomore breakout at TCU, running for 623 yards on 110 carries (5.7 per carry) in 2025 after managing just 239 yards on 54 carries the year before. The model board has him at No. 245 in the 2027 class, but that number comes without an attached grade — dissent here reads 'no model grade,' and the sample backing it is thin enough that the tier read is flagged low-signal.

A Missouri City, TX native, Payne arrived at TCU as a four-star recruit — the No. 406 player in his high-school class on the national composite. He enters the season as a junior, listed at 5'10" and 180 pounds, wearing No. 26.
Too early to project a career arc.
No public board has ranked this prospect and the model has no production, athletic, or NFL data to anchor on — any percentages here would be noise dressed up as precision. The outlook fills in once boards rank him or real numbers land.

The displayed grade gets its strongest lift from hs recruit rating. Its largest drags are production trajectory and scout consensus.
The grade is the 0-to-1 score the board sorts by — it only means something next to the rest of this class, which is why the rank above it is the number to quote.
Broke out in 2025 — 619 rushing yards after never topping 238 in a season before.

Counting stats from charted college games. A dash means the stat wasn't recorded that season.
Percentiles are direction-aware — for 40-time / 3-cone / shuttle, lower is faster, so a 95th-percentile mark means faster than 95% of peers. Hover any percentile for the exact peer group and sample size. A missing row means no verified measurement is on file. Recruiting and roster-listed size are labeled as such; neither is a Combine result.
Everything that could go wrong with Jeremy Payne, gathered in one place — the most serious flags listed first.
Failure-mode scan combining bust probability, closest historical comp's arc, age curve, and active flags. Read this before turning in the card.
The 4-tier hybrid model assigns elevated bust risk. Above 30% bust prob is the threshold above which historical false-positive rates spike — confirm the production signal isn't being rescued by an outlier athletic test.
