Russell Okung went to the Carolina Panthers for Trai Turner, in a swap of blockers.
It appears the Chargers did well.
Turner is a Pro Bowl regular. A right guard, he should boost the ground game and blunt the inside pass rush.
At 26, he’s five years younger than Okung.
Okung is a good left tackle who reliably protects the quarterback’s blind side. But when you also consider Okung, 31, missed much of last season because of a blood clot in his lung, it was surprising the Panthers didn’t also get a draft pick in the trade.
