Chargers won big with Odafe Oweh trade…just look at how mad Ravens fans are

Los Angeles Chargers fans weren’t wrong for being happy about the trade that landed former first-round pass-rusher Odafe Oweh.

Oweh hadn’t recorded a sack this year when the Chargers sent a 2026 fifth-round pick and safety Alohi Gilman to the Baltimore Ravens to acquire him.

Three games into his tenure with the Chargers, Oweh already has two sacks.

Oweh has only played 51 percent of the snaps with the Chargers over those three games, yet the first-round upside has been apparent right away. Now that Khalil Mack is back, there’s a chance he gets even better while continuing to adapt to his new surroundings.

Considering Oweh is on the final year of his rookie deal and easily retainable this offseason, the Chargers getting a possible long-term first-round player at the cost of a mid-draft pick and backup safety classifies as a steal.

Frankly, all one has to do is look at how Ravens fans have reacted to the situation to see how massive this steal is turning out to be for the Chargers.

Now we know for sure what the problem is in Baltimore. Time to clear house. The culture is dead and that starts with coaching.

We can now add Odafe Oweh to Matthew Judon and Zadarius Smith on the list of Ravens pass rushes that get better the instant they leave Baltimore.
