Omarion Hampton, a standout running back from North Carolina, enters the 2025 NFL Draft as a highly coveted prospect. Standing 5-foot-11 ¾ and weighing 221 pounds, Hampton combines power and agility, evidenced by his 4.46-second 40-yard dash and 38-inch vertical jump. Known for his elite contact balance and ability to gain yards after contact, he set a school record with 2,033 all-purpose yards in 2024. While his upright running style and occasional stiffness are concerns, his pass protection and receiving skills make him a versatile asset. Compared to Jonathan Taylor, Hampton fits well in zone blocking schemes and is projected as a mid-to-late first-round pick.
