With Sauber nixing their deal with Honda for 2018 engines, I think that McLaren will be put in a bind. Toro Rosso may now get Honda power units for 2018. I think Honda needs more input from a few teams to get better. Mercedes and Ferrari seems to have no interest in supplying power units for McLaren in 2018. A McLaren chassis with Mercedes power would probably beat the factory Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport team regularly.
Alonso's choices for 2018 seem narrowed to staying with McLaren and maybe going to Renault. Kubica is the other choice for Renault and would be cheaper. But Alonso would push and develop the Renault like no other driver in the field. IndyCar for Alonso would be a massive pay cut but may just be what he needs. The fans in America seemed to really enjoy having him on the grid.
