Dorsey said prospects like Mahomes "don't come along very often". It's clear he didn't think Lynch fit that label.

The sense of urgency wasn't there in 2016 because KC had just won their first playoff game in like 30 years. Plus I imagine Dorsey was a little spooked about the NFL taking away a few of their picks after Maclingate, and so he wasn't as aggressive as he should've been.
