No, they didn't try and had no reason to try since they don't agree with that type of move. Loomis himself said the Saints philosophy is "quality over quantity" when asked about trading down. He mentioned their trading up some 25 times and not once trading down. He also said when they find someone they love they go and get that player.

It's hard to logically argue against that philosophy when Loomis' teams are right near the top of the list in total wins during his tenure.
