I would say his ceiling is something along the lines of an Alex Smith, who also struggled early in his career with turnovers, had somewhat of a 2-3 season resurgence in his last two seasons in San Francisco and when he left for KC, but eventually settled into pretty much being a game managing QB.
Alex Smith is certainly not an elite QB or one you would "build around" but you can win games with him if the team is built correctly.
I'll re-iterate that I think the team can win games with Kirk under center, maybe even be a playoff team eventually, however I don't think he will ever be a Top 10 kind of QB and that is OK if Scott McCloughan plans to build this team into the next Seahawks style team.

I don't think most (or any) fans see KC as evolving to greatness. I do think most will say he's the best we've got on roster, and maybe better than what the draft provides next year.
