Ravens have quickly been vindicated for controversial trade

On October 7, the Baltimore Ravens traded edge rusher Odafe Oweh and a 2027 seventh-round pick for safety Alohi Gilman and a 2026 fifth-round pick. When it first happened, the trade was fairly controversial. It wasn't viewed as a downright bad trade. However, people were wondering why the Ravens traded an edge rusher when their pass rush had struggled all season long.

Since arriving in Baltimore, though, Gilman has helped transform the Ravens' defense. His presence has allowed Kyle Hamilton to move closer to the line of scrimmage, which has helped the Ravens generate more pressure.
