From the article
McDaniel has always had a tendency to feed his most talented playmakers. Omarion Hampton, a 2025 first-round pick in a very deep running back class, is the best talent in that backfield.
STACKED’s take
Hampton is McDaniel's most talented weapon in a top offense; worst case is RB12.
Hampton is the best talent in the Chargers backfield and a 2025 first-round pick in a deep RB class. Mike McDaniel has a history of feeding his most talented playmakers; in 2024, he said about his Miami backfield, 'Who says we have to stop at two? Maybe we can just have four,' then fed De'Von Achane 290 opportunities for 15.3 PPG despite Miami being in the bottom half in total points and yards. The Chargers are projected to have one of the league's best offenses. The downside is already baked into Hampton's ADP; worst-case is a top-12 RB in a split backfield. The source dismisses concerns about Keaton Mitchell (Ravens didn't pay his $3.5M tender) and Kimani Vidal (third-string) eating into his usage. Once Hampton asserts dominance, McDaniel will lean into him as he has with other stars.
