The New Orleans Saints are trying to move into the top-10 of the draft, sources tell ESPN.

Sean Payton Doesn't Believe Drafting A QB Is A 'Must' For Saints

Apr 23, 2021 3:10 PM

Sean Payton doesn't see quarterback as a major need for the New Orleans Saints heading into the NFL Draft.

Drew Brees has retired, leaving the Saints with Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill at quarterback.

"We're mindful of our depth at each position," Payton said. "We're currently in our final (draft) board readings on the defensive side of the ball. I think relative to [the quarterback] position, it still stays the same in traits that we're looking for. (But) I don't think it's a 'must' position. We feel like we've got real good players in the building."
