So the QB's playing behind the worst o-lines have the most fumbles. Never would have guessed!

If you want to get rid of Wilson because you don't have a system that will let him play to his strengths? (and we don't) sure.
But if Wilson goes then Pete better be gone too.

Agreed.
Unfortunately the team is running out of time to make a decision. Wilson's next contract is going to be big. If they commit to that they have to get the next coach right as well

NC State QB replaces the other
Interesting thought but doubt Chargers will give away all those draft picks and RW will not want to pay California income tax

But sometimes, (often) success is the product of having a pool of tremendous people.
You have these people and someone to enable them, follow a process that extracts their expertise and contributions, then reap the rewards. The problem is that often the leader of this group eventually starts to think it is him, removes those people or attempts to micromanage them, and you lose all the productivity you had.
The leader then panics or in a fit of hubris starts making more egregious decisions to right the ship, further derailing things.
Finally, given all the success built up their ego, they insist on removing those people and instilling people that follow them or feed their ego. This is where the entire thing crashes into the rocks because the people that did steer the ship are gone, and the person that is leading really cannot steer at all.
I have seen this in startup after startup, and this is what feels like is happening now. Pete literally abandoned all the things that made him successful because he started to think it was Pete and Pete's decisions that created it. It originally was probably Pete empowering good decisions of others.
So we abandoned all the things that made this team great, focusing on what we want to avoid, assuring we avoid none of it.
(ProTip: If you focus on what you want to avoid, you will almost always gravitate toward that exact thing.)
Either way, Pete has lost his value here. If he goes somewhere else with a new pool of great people, he can restart the process but for us his value is going to be limited. However, given his age he probably is done when he leaves here.
So while Wilson may have value to us or may not, you almost have to bet on Wilson because betting on Pete is assuring failure. Maybe for the 3 first round picks you do a deal, since you can probably convert one of the 1st rounders to a few 2nds and refill the depth. But not if JS is making those picks.
