Hmm.
Given the choice between the two washed backs, yes I'd prefer McKinnon.

I wonder if there's a stylistic distinction from a blocking standpoint.
For instance, McKinnon can chip but was best at 'absorbing' blitzers in pass pro. Hunt's just a bigger guy.
Maybe if they intend to use someone to help Kingsley a little more, they want someone that is more likely to deliver a punch than absorb one.
So in that regard, perhaps they just see Hunt, being the bigger and stronger back, as a slightly better fit.
Because yeah, intuitively you would think McKinnon would get the call ahead of Hunt. If he isn't, there's a reason for it.
