Maybe you could at least make one of those cameras mirrorless, with a really good zoom and one prime for it and a long lens for the DSLR and a medium to long zoom.

80 to 90% of my shots are 500mm to 1,000mm, so that means at least one DSLR, but I am thinking more about that 2d body.

I carry 7D, 5D MkIII, 15/f2.8, 24-105/f4, 70-200/f4, 500/f4, 1.4x and 2.0x TCs. That certainly gives me full focal length range (although I'm Jonesing for a 600mm to replace the 500mm).

Is there a full-frame mirrorless right that'd cover my 15mm to 400mm range?

I'm afraid to think about replacing those L-series lenses with equivalents. $$$

Of course, matching batteries, cards and accessories has its advantages.
