Yahoo Sports NFL on Omarion Hampton
From the article
he should be running behind a far better line and playing for an offensive coordinator with a history of coaching running backs to breakout seasons. Look what De'Von Achane did under McDaniel in Miami, where he ran for 1,350 yards and caught 67 passes last season.
STACKED’s take
Hampton poised for breakout in Year 2 under McDaniel; Achane's 1,350 yards/67 catches is comp.
Omarion Hampton, the 2025 first-round running back from North Carolina, had an incomplete rookie grade after a strong start (128 rushing yards against the Giants in Week 4) before suffering a fractured ankle in Week 5 that sidelined him for two months. In his sophomore season, he should run behind a far better offensive line and play for offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who has a history of coaching running backs to breakout seasons. The source cites De'Von Achane's 2025 performance under McDaniel in Miami (1,350 rushing yards and 67 receptions) as a comparable outcome, suggesting if Hampton can approach those numbers, he'll be a popular fantasy pickup.
