Aggressively? I don't recall that happening.
Jeff Allen and Donald Stephenson signed elsewhere at the start of free agency, so Dorsey targeted Schwartz, who already had a deal in place with the Browns. His brother convinced him to take less money once the Chiefs contacted his agent because they both felt KC was a better fit for him than Cleveland.
But the Chiefs weren't outbidding teams.
All that said, Reid appears to be content with drafting guys late and grooming them to fit his specific needs, to which he's had quite a bit of success, so it's a bit difficult to see him suddenly shift philosophies and draft a guy high when there are so many other areas that could be upgraded immediately.
