Let me preface by saying I trust @diannaESPN's sources more than mine.

But I've been pretty open about the fact that I received strong insinuations that the Saints were potentially targeting a QB in the Top 10 if a particular one started to fall.
1/2
The New Orleans Saints still have not found a trade partner in the top 10 as of now, per sources.

Saints trying to move alllll the way up into Top 10.

Saints never afraid of trading up but to dance you have to find a dance partner. As for corner, that’s a high tax to pay. They absolutely need to address the other side of Marshon Lattimore but I believe they are eyeing something a little more interesting. https://t.co/5oyMHxRp0h

In a relatively quiet trade market thus far, the #Saints appear to be the team doing the most groundwork for a potential trade up. They’ve even called into the Top 10 to gauge value. For a CB? Would be a steep price, but they aren’t afraid to be bold...

Per @CharlesRobinson on Caleb Farley, says he's hearing Saints might move up to get him. And that Saints feel they may need to move ahead of Titans to get it done.
