Hunt is better than Williams. But they're valuable in different ways and you can't just say Williams is less valuable because he's not as much of an inside runner. It pains me to say it, but whik hunt allows mahomes to go more vertical, Williams would have been more effective last year if mahomes was more willing to take the checkdown. Williams brings more speed to the outside. He also, unlike hunt, is a natural receiver where hunt is a rb who catches passes. Hunt almost never lined up in the slot or out wide... He was primarily a backfield receiving option. mahomes needs to adapt his game a little bit and he will.
And Darwin Thompson has a chance to be pretty special where the combo of Williams and Darwin close that gap pretty quickly.
