Damien Williams had 5.1YPC last year and he's a journeyman RB. So we shouldn't act like Hunt was irreplaceable. He just ****ed himself over and cost his team during a playoff run. In between the two season, he'll have missed 15 games including 2 playoff games. He put himself in that position by being an idiot and then by lying to the Chiefs about his idiocy. If he would have been honest, worst case scenario is that he got 4-6 games suspended at the beginning of last year instead of basically the whole last half of the season. And that's the worst case scenario. Best case is that the chiefs would have somehow gotten the tape buried and he lives happily ever after.

I agree with most, but an all pro rb's value goes beyond the numbers and can be hard to quantify. Remember the 3rd and 1 in the afc championship game DW was stuffed in a play Hunt would have easily gained if you switched bodies at point of contact. That one play (slight hyperbole ahead) may have meant the SB, and was a huge stop for NE.
