The Washington Commanders needed to make a massive splash in free agency, and it needed to be on the defensive edge. General manager Adam Peters achieved this objective by spending lavish sums on Odafe Oweh.
Most around the league thought this was a good signing. Oweh is coming off a breakout second half of 2025 after being traded to the Los Angeles Chargers. He's cashed in with a four-year, $100 million deal with $68 million guaranteed in Washington.
This should help an anemic pass-rush. However, one NFL insider wasn't entirely convinced that this massive gamble would yield the desired results.
