NFL Executive Rightfully Hits Chargers Where It Hurts for Odafe Oweh, Akheem Mesidor
- The Chargers let Odafe Oweh leave in free agency and drafted Akheem Mesidor in the first round to fill a third-edge role.
- Analysts note Mesidor’s age as a factor while Chargers seek quick adaptation for the third edge spot behind Mack and Tuipulotu.
- Executives questioned whether keeping Oweh via tag or long-term deal would have been wiser for cap planning.
- The piece notes the Chargers still have about $45.8 million in free cap space as the discussion unfolds.
- The move is framed as a reaction to cap constraints and planning for future years rather than an immediate win-now push.
