Market rate. Crazy? Probably not as crazy as the $20MM+ some of the offensive guards are getting.

Wilkins with Crosby and Koonce is a pretty phenomenal DL. If Wilson continues his improvement playing inside, that's a dominant DL.

Yeah...but you still don't have an offense or a QB that matters....

Defense can win....unless you are playing the future GOAT and KC's version of the Grim Reaper.

Crazy in comparison to what people on this forum were hoping in the event that Chris Jones left the Chiefs. They were hoping Wilkins could be signed for $23-24M per year...but he comes in much closer to $30M per year. KC is better off just keeping Chris Jones at the high price.
