Getting a green P in the final square is a modest start in Wordle, since 5 letter words ending in P still leave the middle unknown.
For the square just before the P, M is the letter worth testing first, as STAMP and SKIMP confirm.
Once that M turns green, the vowel beside it and the opening letters are all that remain unsolved.

Can a Wordle answer end in P?
Yes. GROUP, SLEEP and TRUMP all sit on the Wordle answer list, so the pattern is worth playing for rather than ruling out.
Do any of these use the same letter twice?
Yes. SLEEP and SHEEP are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is ABAMP really a word?
Yes. A unit of current equal to 10 amperes. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
GROUP. It is the most ordinary word here that the answer list carries, so it is the guess to make when you want to win the round rather than learn from it.
Are all of these accepted as guesses?
Yes. Every word on this list is a legal guess, including the ones that look wrong. WRAMP and WOOMP are among them. Only a smaller set sits on the answer list, and those are the ones marked in green.
Which of these would most players overlook?
CROUP, DROOP and POLYP. All three are on the answer list, and none is a word you would reach for early, so they are worth remembering once the obvious guesses run out.
