So I would argue he's the biggest piece they can't do without.
Kelce's importance is obvious, though with an improved OL/run game AND an improved TE room behind him (Noah Gray, Jody Fortson, and even Blake Bell all offer much more than the 2nd TE could last year) the Chiefs may reduce some of his importance to being functional offensively.
Drafting Gray, keeping Fortson... both are moves made with the idea of providing some Kelce relief.

Kind of interesting:
In the four games Hill was inactive in 2019, Mahomes went 103 of 162 for 1453 yards with 8 TDs and 0 INTs.
