Take a chunk of that $30+M in cap space that they will have and help your defense. Don't spend it all, as that won't be necessary, but use it smartly. They will already have Berry, Peters(?), Houston, Jones, Ragland, etc. in place. That's not a bad foundation at all. Probably better than a large chunk of the NFL. By the time you supplement it with some FAs and draft picks, the defense might look really good.
If Mahomes is the man, they are going to be playoff contenders in '18. And as you mentioned, I have such a strong feeling about his future. If I had to bet, I would say HOF over bust.

Thanks bud, I appreciate that
I wouldnt even mind if Wilson came back on a friendly deal, after the way I've felt about him over the years it seems strange to say... but he has slowly yet surely become a genuine contributor
He can run real routes or gadget plays, always blocks etc... as 4 or 5 guy, he is a solid fit here
But yeah, its gotta be a defensive minded offseason... because as we both feel, Mahomes will be able to elevate the play of the majority of our returning offense
A guy like Robinson will almost certainly break out with Pat slinging it
