Fantasy Tiers

Omarion Hampton: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) RB (ranked #15 at the position). Rhamondre Stevenson: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) RB (ranked #22 at the position). Among the top 50 running backs this season, Omarion Hampton is producing at 60% of elite pace and Rhamondre Stevenson at 53%. That ranking gap means Omarion Hampton carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Omarion Hampton vs Rhamondre Stevenson: The Full Breakdown

If you are choosing between Omarion Hampton and Rhamondre Stevenson for your lineup, you are not alone. Omarion Hampton finished the 2025 season at 13.3 PPG for the Los Angeles Chargers (9 games), and Rhamondre Stevenson averaged 11.6 for the New England Patriots (14 games).

That 1.7-point weekly advantage for Omarion Hampton is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Omarion Hampton ran for 545 yards and 4 touchdowns; Rhamondre Stevenson posted 603 and 7. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

Omarion Hampton has his bye in Week 7, and Rhamondre Stevenson rests in Week 11. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Omarion Hampton (age 23) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds. Rhamondre Stevenson (age 28, 4 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value.
