From the article

Demond Claiborne is a sixth-round rookie who is currently third on the depth chart, behind Jordan Mason and Aaron Jones. While I understand that there is some excitement about the Vikings' revamped running game, you don't want to risk taking a zero by drafting Claiborne. If I wanted to take a rookie running back who is third on the depth chart, I'd rather go with Nicholas Singleton of the Titans.

Claiborne is third on Vikings depth chart; Ammirante prefers Singleton at same tier.

Demond Claiborne, a sixth-round rookie running back, is currently third on the depth chart behind Jordan Mason and Aaron Jones. Ammirante advises against drafting him despite the excitement around the Vikings' revamped running game, as taking a third-string back risks a zero in any format. If targeting a rookie RB in that depth chart position, Ammirante would prefer Nicholas Singleton of the Titans.
