I think them saying they were vetting is just a cover. I think they got super excited that he was still there and they couldn't wait their turn. They called him early to talk to his girlfriend because she is a LA native and they think she/they will be happy to be in LA but it blows up in their faces.

They were not vetting at all. They asked Foster to put his girlfriend on the line and Coach Payton was asking the girlfriend if she was ready to be supportive and give guidance to Foster etc , while Coach is asking these questions a call comes through and it is John Lynch letting Foster know he is a 49er. Per Peter King this all happened with seconds left of Seattle being on the clock.

What I think happened is Saints thought Foster was in the bag and Seattle was taking Ram. Coach jumped the gun and called Foster as they were that certain Seattle wasn't taking Foster.
