Omarion Hampton

Hampton had an injury interrupted rookie season, but the Chargers need him to elevate in his second year. He flashed big play ability and with Mike McDaniel running the offense the sky is the limit. Not a sure thing, but the upside is elite. 

If new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel gives Hampton the same offensive role as he did for DeVon Achane in Miami, Hampton could have a huge fantasy season. Ultimately, Hampton would need to execute, but the opportunity for greatness and heavy weekly fantasy production is there. 

Mike McDaniel is installing significant elements of his 49ers and Dolphins' offenses in LA. Expect quick-hitting blocks that open craters up the middle with the help of perimeter runs and east-west misdirection based on the speed of Keaton Mitchell, Quentin Johnston, and Ladd McConkey. 

Think of Hampton and Mitchell as approximations of Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane. Athletically, they aren't 1:1 comparisons and each pair has different strengths/flaws. 

The common tie is that all four possess straightline speed and there's a power and an elusive complement in each backfield. 

The Chargers have a strong offensive line when healthy. Hampton has fantasy RB1 upside in this offense if he can earn 15-18 total touchdowns, but Mike McDaniel has already proclaimed this a hot-hand committee backfield and that means Kimani Vidal is also prominently in the picture. Hampton's game and fit in this offense could be overrated by the public.
