Where do you think Wilson has failed in his role?
In this offense, the #2 target is Travis Kelce.
The X receiver in this offense is never going to be a guy that gets a ton of looks. His primary role is going to be to exploit coverages that sell out to stop Maclin and Kelce. In that regard, Wilson's done his job extremely well.
Wilson doesn't do a bad job of finding space, he is a solid route runner and he has good hands. For the most part, Wilson has been a very solid player and is by no means holding back the offense.
If Conley isn't ready to take the next step, Wilson will remain just fine as the X. I don't see any pressing need to use high-end draft capital and certainly don't see a need to use cap space to bring a guy in to replace Wilson when he's not likely to make a significant difference in the offense over Wilson.
