Mahomes can make due with average Tackle play but man there's just so much that can go wrong when your interior line gets detonated. And if necessary, Bradbury can slide to G in a pinch. With LDT's health history and Erving being shitty, a little versatility on the interior can't hurt either.
I think people attribute a lot of our offense's steady productivity post-Hunt to Williams being a solid replacement and there's a little truth to that. But that's also right around the time we got Morse back and he's just so damn good in pass pro that I think he was a HUGE part of Mahomes ability to keep the offensive thriving even after Hunt was gone.
We'd have really seen a drop-off with Williams back there had Morse not also returned to boost our pass-pro at around the same time. With Bradbury stepping in over the fringe/average work of Reiter, we don't have to worry about that.
