The New Orleans Saints' draft plan needs to be a good one for Kellen Moore's first offseason as an NFL head coach. They've shown interest in multiple quarterback prospects that are widely expected to go in the first round of the upcoming draft.
Jaxson Dart, Shedeur Sanders, Jalen Milroe, and even more QB prospects all seem to be on New Orleans' radar as they look ahead to their long-term future at the position. They may not go in the QB direction that some expect at the moment, though.
Saints may pass on Jaxson Dart with 9th pick
According to Nick Underhill, he would be surprised if the Saints took Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart with the ninth overall pick.
Dart has been the pick for New Orleans in multiple recent mock drafts around the NFL media world. Todd McShay mocked Dart to the Saints at nine in his latest run through the first round.
This mock draft pick follows a report from ESPN's Jordan Reid earlier this week, too. He noted the Saints' interest in Dart. The experienced NFL Draft analyst mentioned New Orleans as a potential landing spot for the Ole Miss quarterback at ninth overall.

Kellen Moore was in attendance for the Ole Miss Pro Day, where Dart worked out and talked to scouts, coaches, and organization members.
We will see if Dart is, in fact, the Saints' focus in the top ten. As of now, one of the most trusted sources for the team doesn't think it's the most likely outcome.
Keep in mind – it's also a possibility that the Saints select a higher ranked prospect with the ninth overall selection, then trading back into the back half of the first round to draft Dart, too. Let's see how it all unfolds.
Head coach Kellen Moore gave Saints fans a hint about who they will pick in round one recently, but nobody noticed
The New Orleans Saints are trying to get their ducks in a row ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft. Their needs are aplenty for an aging roster, but they could go in a multitude of directions, particularly in the first round. Penn State tight end Tyler Warren remains an interesting option, and the Saints are […]
