Jay Payton is a big, athletic, somewhat under the radar, linebacker prospect that's visiting Virginia Tech's camp this weekend.
Just finished up my visit at #UVA...going to #VT next week hope they show me a good time!— Jay Payton (@Jay_Is_Like) July 3, 2013
Via Chris Horne, Payton graduated from Archbishop Carroll (DC) in the spring, is now enrolled at Atlanta Sports Academy, and is looking to enroll in college in Jan. '14. 247Sports lists him with Virginia Tech, UNC, Southern Illinois, and Wake Forest offers.

Oh you like to block kicks well have you heard of "Beamerball?" I like this kid looks like he watches the whole field I have a feeling of Vince Hall v.2.0! Sign him up!
I like this guy's film a lot, I just hope he isn't destined for a tweener d-line role. I feel like the coaches end up slating anybody who enters around 225 lbs right over to the line without thinking about having some decent size at the MLB position.
Please tell me that Mr. Cornell Brown is recruiting this fellow.......
Explosive athleticism in a very good football conference surprised he is under the radar.
