Agree to disagree.
The Chiefs have gone 12-5 the past two season while suffering massive injuries to their defensive line (34 games lost last year alone), linebacker corp (39 games lost last year), their best WR in the 2015 playoffs along with their top 3 running backs, injuries to their starting left guard and top 2 running backs in 2016.
The front office is in absolutely no hurry to rush Mahomes into duty until he's absolutely ready to not lose a step in victories. I don't think that gaining $13.4 million in cap space for 2018 is going to be a determining factor in cutting Alex Smith.
