The smoke has cleared from the 2023 NFL Draft. As always, the net effects go beyond the players who were drafted. The draft can also impact the players who are already on the roster. In the case of the Ravens’ young pass rushers, Odafe Oweh and David Ojabo, the coast is clear.
Baltimore didn’t draft any real competition to take away from their snaps and playing time. The real threat would have been Nolan Smith from Georgia, who looks every bit like Haason Reddick 2.0. Instead, it was the Eagles that snagged him – even funnier considering Reddick is on the roster – late in the first.
