My guess, the Raiders had Jeanty higher than Membou or Banks
I get the theory of having a good Oline for your RB - but end of the day, the pick at OL has to match where they are being drafted tooNow, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
Let’s win one for Mack.

Take the best damn player

He and Willis McGahee in college have similar styles and traits. Willis drafted similar spot years ago. Just watching his college tape i see a lot of similarities. Hampton in this system should really work well with his style. Lots of A gap penetration. One cut and power penetration. Similar to Henry so i can see thats why he gets that comp. I thought i saw some Lev Bell but not quite as patient letting holes develop. And not the same vision. I am seeing the smaller Derrick Henry traits now. I think McGahee was similar and thats why the Ravens at one point brought him in. Much better in the passing game as Henry. Titans really held him back on passing downs.

Yall kind of young in here. But Omarion Hampton reminds me of a guy I was in a wedding with. Fred Taylor.
same build. Fred was a taller back. Fred was a better receiver. Someone post the tape in here of Fred at Florida and Omarion at North Carolina. You’ll be looking at identical players.

Corey Dillon also comes to mind.

One factor people aren’t saying in here and draft experts aren’t saying is Joe Alt. This completes are pick of Joe Alt. Joe Alt opens up wholes. And having a Tackle like that who plays angry and pushes like Sewell you get a running back like Hampton you’re having a Jamry Gibbs effect on this team. It’s just facts lots of 40 yard runs a lot of stuff to the outside. Multiple 5 yard runs. First downs.
