Trading Up for Other than QB?

Could you see the Saints make a move up in round one for a player other than a QB? If so, who would you like that to be?
I'm not a Bama guy but I like S/CB M.Fitzpatrick and think he'd be someone who could help us to a championship, Georgia LB Roquan Smith too.

Derwin James and small jump for Harold Landry would be nice.

The only player that may be in reach and worth moving up for would be Harold Landry but still don't see it happening.
He will go top 10 so thats out of the question

Plus somebody is going to fall. It happens every year. It could be Landry, Payne, or one of the CBS rated after Denzel Ward. Like Jaire Alexander.

I'm hoping for the same thing and hopefully is Landry.

Harold Landry, DE/OLB, Boston College
Height: 6-2. Weight: 252. Arm: 32.88.
40 Time: 4.64.
Projected Round (2018): 1-2.
4/25/18: Multiple teams sources told me that Landry belongs on the second day of the 2018 NFL Draft. They labeled his senior year tape as not impressive. His run defense was poor, and he looked disinterested in making an effort in the ground game at times. Landry had a big drop in his pass-rush production year over year and put together some ugly games in run defense. Teams that run a 4-3 defense have concerns about Landry holding up on the edge because he is very undersized to be a base end. Multiple teams have told me they have Landry graded as a second-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. However, there aren't 32 players who merit first-round grades, so some second-round talents will go on Thursday night, and Landry has a shot at being one of those players given the pass-rush ability he displayed in 2016.
In 2017, Landry had 38 tackles with 8.5 tackles for a loss, five sacks and two passes broken up. The senior missed a few games with an ankle injury late in the year.
Landry was a liability versus the run against the Fighting Irish, recording only one tackle while Notre Dame ran for seven touchdowns and had two players exceed 200 yards rushing. On the vast majority of his plays, Landry went against a freshman right tackle, yet was ineffective. Landry also lost his few reps against Mike McGlinchey, plus got rag dolled by Quenton Nelson. It was an ugly performance for Landry. He was slightly better against Clemson, although still underwhelming.
9/1/17: Landry had an impressive junior season as an edge rusher for Boston College, recording 16.5 sacks, 22 tackles for a loss, seven forced fumbles, four passes batted and 51 tackles. He contributed as a sophomore with 60 stops, and 4.5 sacks. Landry could fit best as a 3-4 outside linebacker in the NFL. A general manager told me they thought Landry would have been a late first- or second-round pick if he had entered the 2017 NFL Draft.

Who do you hope we draft/think we'll draft ?

I’m not sure you guys realize how much it costs to move up. For us to move from #27 to #15 we would have to give away EVERY pick in this years draft.

i like the idea of landry as edge and pass rush but the pick makes my bust radar go off.

The Saints have shown a willingness to borrow from the next year's draft to go after a player they covet. With us looking like a contender I can see them doing just that.

I know you said “other than QB” but I don’t want to start a whole new thread for this. I pulled this quote out of Peter King’s Final draft rumors article and thought it was interesting and, makes your premise more likely.
quote:
Mayfield’s in play everywhere. Adam Schefter reported Tuesday that Mayfield is in play for the first pick, to Cleveland. I think that’s true, and Albert Breer, with better sources than I have at the top of the draft, believes that’s possible too. So I could see Mayfield go one to Cleveland (though it would be a surprise), three to the Jets (not a surprise) or five to Denver (definitely not a surprise) or five or six to Buffalo, Miami or Arizona.

If we had to move up, I wouldn't hate moving up 8-10 spots and grabbing Vita Vea if he slips a little. We haven't had a solid 1 Tech D Tackle in a very long time, he could gobble up doubles and make our ok LB corps look a lot better. It seems like there a lot more 3 tech D Tackles coming out, but a huge 1 tech guy who's athletic DT can be a big difference maker. Our run defense wasn't very good last season, this could be a big step in the right direction.
