On3 DB / Malik Elzy

As a College Recruit

Polished route runner who can separate at the line of scrimmage and get open at will. His ability to win off the line and stack corners sets up his routes to perfection as he gets in and out of his breaks with ease. Put on a tremendous performance at the Adidas All-American Bowl where he earned MVP honors after the first day of practice. Excellent at catching the football away from his frame and being able to secure contested catches. Lacks ideal top end speed but wins with his twitch and hip fluidity. Strong ball carrier after the catch as well, tough to tackle in space. High upside prospect who has true positional versatility as an outside or inside threat at the next level and beyond. One of the younger prospects in the 2023 recruiting cycle.

Malik Elzy a stock up prospect at All-American Bowl week

Charles Power•

Malik Elzy was the On3 MVP for the West on day one and continued to string together several strong periods of practice throughout the week. He entered the event well known for his strong hands and ability to win at the catch point. With that said, we were impressed by his route-running and ability to separate with change of direction. Elzy may not be a receiver who is going to blow you away with his times on the stopwatch, but he plays relatively fast and showed some technical ability as a route-runner. He also displayed strong ball skills making multiple contested catches during the 7-on-7 periods. Elzy, who committed to Illinois during the All-American Bowl, looked like a blue-chip wide receiver in San Antonio.

Malik Elzy turns in strong performance at Overtime OT7

Charles Power•

Malik Elzy turned in as many highlight reel catches as any receiver over the course of the weekend. We saw the Chicago Simeon product flash high-point ability on several occasions. He was particularly dangerous on the goal line. Elzy is listed at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds, but looks to be heavier. He’s a physical, coordinated receiver who can body defensive backs in contested situations.
