The New Orleans Saints have begun exploring trade options to acquire a quarterback in the 2025 NFL draft, which has only just started. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Saints have made initial calls to other teams looking to move up from their current 40th pick in Round 2. This suggests they’re targeting a signal-caller ahead of the 32rd overall pick.
The team is considering options like Shedeur Sanders, Jaxson Dart, and Jalen Milroe. However, it’s unclear whether this move is necessary given their depth chart, which is aging and expensive. Drafting multiple rookies could be a more cost-effective solution to improve youth and affordability. The Saints’ general manager, Mickey Loomis, has made questionable decisions in the past, and his record without Sean Payton (49-66) raises questions about this move’s validity.
As draft week progresses, fans will have to wait and see if the Saints follow through on their trade-up plans or choose a different route.
