NFL Fantasy - The Athletic on Omarion Hampton

Hampton's talent rivals Jeanty's; bell-cow role with McDaniel and improved OL.

The source believes Hampton's talent gap to Ashton Jeanty is as slim as Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs entering the league; he has bell-cow ability with plenty of pass-catching upside and can eclipse 300 touches over a full season. The Chargers' offensive line is healthy and improved (worst PFF run blocking grade of 37.7 last year), and Mike McDaniel as new offensive coordinator will push the offense forward. Despite concerns about a possible 60% backfield share and run-blocking struggles, the source gives an unequivocal yes vote that Hampton's talent and situation make him a locked-in RB1 breakout.
