From the article

Fantasy managers cannot wait to build around running backs, so even if Cook, Baltimore Ravens star Derrick Henry, Omarion Hampton of the Los Angeles Chargers, Josh Jacobs of the Green Bay Packers, Chase Brown of the Cincinnati Bengals and others aren't what we would call 'value picks,' they are very much in demand because running back is not deep.

STACKED’s take

Hampton among early-round RB targets in non-deep position; volume-based demand.

Listed among the volume running backs the source is targeting early in the draft alongside Cook and Henry; the source emphasizes that running back is not a deep position in 2026 and that fantasy managers cannot wait to build around these elite backs, making Hampton a player to secure in the early rounds despite not being a traditional 'value pick' in ADP terms.
